Does RuleScript support classes IN scripts.

[hackx2]

example:

package testingLMAOHEHE;

class RedBox extends flixel.FlxSprite {
	public function new(x:Float = 0, y:Float = 0, width:Int = 100, height:Int = 100) : Void {
		super(x, y);
		makeGraphic(width, height, 0xFFFF0000);
	}
}

function create()
{
        var e = new RedBox();
	trace('create');
}

Yes. I recommend using the dev version.

1. You'll need to replace basic resolveScript function (example: ./test/src/Main.hx).

2. Make subclass with the interface rulescript.scriptedClass.RuleScriptedClass.

3. Now you can get an instance of the scripted class like this:

• Method 1:

var scriptedInstance = new ScriptedSubClass('a.b.c.HelloWorld', [1, 'Script']);

• Method 2:

import rulescript.scriptedClass.RuleScriptedClass;
import rulescript.types.ScriptedTypeUtil;

// Get scripted class
var cl = new Access(ScriptedTypeUtil.resolveScript('scriptedClass.RuleScriptedClass.ScriptedClassStrict'));

// Create scripted class instance
var instance = cl.createInstance(['hello']);

Hi, thank you for your response. This isn't JUST for specific scripts that are using classes—my main use for this is softmodding.

I should've specified, but I sent the script as a sort of state-specific script that's automatically loaded by a handler. I made that class to see if I could add a red box, lol.

Thank you for responding so quickly—I really appreciate it.

I didn't quite understand you, the question remains unresolved?

[hackx2]

Yeah, the question remains unresolved.

1. ScriptedTypeUtil doesn't exist in the dev branch.
2. When running cl.createInstance(['hello']);, what exactly is being created? /what exactly is "hello"?

[Kriptel]

1. Oops, I forgot that this type is only in my local version for now, I'll push a commit to dev soon.
2. cl.createInstance creates an instance of rulescript.scriptedClass.RuleScriptedClass.ScriptedInstance or a any class instance with the RuleScriptedClass interface (depends on the type after extends).
   ["hello"] is a list of script constructor arguments

[hackx2]

Alright.

[hackx2]

Oh yeah, I’m not trying to use this class inside the source—I'm mainly trying to create classes inside scripts and use them there.
Also, am I allowed to have classes inside scripts? For example, the script with the RedBox class.

I think this example can answer your questions.

It requires the latest dev commit.

[hackx2]

Thank you, it works.

One more question: I have a problem with this macro—when in the config I use just flixel, I get an error.
Could this be me adding the scripted class interface to an abstract?

I don't recommend automating this process, as some classes require manual exclusion of some fields.
