Detailed Description

Events that can be generated as a stand-alone function, and used as a condition, action or expression.

Note

The code generation can be done using gd::EventsCodeGenerator

The conversion to an extension is not in GDCore and should be done by the IDE (see EventsFunctionsExtensionsLoader)

Member Function Documentation

GetParameters()

const ParameterMetadataContainer& gd::EventsFunction::GetParameters ( ) const

inline

Return the parameters of the function that are filled in the editor.

Note

They won't be used for ActionWithOperator, but they need to be kept to avoid to loose them when the function type is changed.

During code/extension generation, new parameters are added to the generated function, like "runtimeScene" and "eventsFunctionContext". This should be transparent to the user.

GetParametersForEvents()

const gd::ParameterMetadataContainer & gd::EventsFunction::GetParametersForEvents

(

const gd::EventsFunctionsContainer &

functionsContainer

)

const

Return the parameters of the function that are used in the events.

Note

During code/extension generation, new parameters are added to the generated function, like "runtimeScene" and "eventsFunctionContext". This should be transparent to the user.

IsCondition()

bool gd::EventsFunction::IsCondition ( ) const

inline

Return true if the function is a condition.

Note that a function can be both an expression and a condition.

IsExpression()

bool gd::EventsFunction::IsExpression ( ) const

inline

Return true if the function is an expression.

Note that a function can be both an expression and a condition.
