This makes functions independent of their "Code Owner"s, which removes the
necessity to maintain that connection and carefully reset functions when
their scripthost is cleared.
"Anon" referred to the fact that these proplists have neither a number,
like simple proplists, objects and effects, nor an ID like Definitions.
However, they now store the names of the global constant or property they
are in, so "Anon" is no longer appropriate.
There are now three classes of proplists:
- ordinary proplists (C4PropListScript) have a number only in the savegame
- objects and effects (C4PropListNumbered) always have a number
- proplists created during initialization (C4PropListStatic) have a path
So the function could be called NewNamed, but the source of the proplist
has been far more stable than the method used for serialization, and Static
somewhat describes the source.
The rope will create a C4AulScript for the rope engine functions instead of
putting them into the global scope, and we might want to put C4Object-only
functions into a separate C4AulScript some day, too.
For example, the proplist in Clonk.ActMap.Walk is saved as DClonk.ActMap.Walk.
Should the script defining the proplist change while the savegame is stored,
the proplist will have the new contents instead of the old ones after savegame
load.
Also, save functions as DFlint.Hit instead of fDFlint.Hit. Loading uses the same
code as static proplist loading.
Curiously, this makes g++ 4.4 use the C4RefCntPointer move constructor,
which was broken until now. Fix it to take a mutable rvalue reference.
Instead of carefully inserting functions at the start or end of the list,
build the list just before the parser runs, at the same time as filling
the proplist where the functions are looked up.
This way, the overloaded function is simply the one that was previously in
the proplist, is not needed outside of the overloading function, and can thus
be replaced in the proplist.
This requires replacing C4AulScript::Def with C4AulScript::GetPropList() and
C4DefScriptHost::Def, and making C4GameScriptHost::GetPropList return the
scenario proplist prototype.
Definition calls won't be able to change the local variables, of course.
Other proplists will be able to use local variables once they can have
functions.
This allows for a slight simplification of the ScriptHost API, as only the
definitions made the ScriptHost load the stringtable for them.
This changes the sortorder of definitions, but C4Update should be able
to make the necessary changes to the release groups.
This time with more manual checking and using git blame -M -C, so that
a few cases of copied code get a copyright notice corresponding to
their initial introduction.
This is a whitespace-only patch. Hopefully, it'll only affect rarely-changed
parts of the engine, since all regularly maintained pieces should already
use tabs.
All C4IDs are now stored in auto-created global constants with the same name
as the ID itself. There is no special parsing of IDs anymore; this means that
you need to use the C4Id function if you aren't sure whether an ID exists.
IDs in portrait strings aren't working, since I expect portrait support to be
removed from the engine.
