@druggedbunny Done in dev branch.

I also added “Copy path” action into tab menu and Project view.

Wow!

[nerobotParticipant]

Cool!

1. Open file locationlocation – it’s easy, will add.
2. Irc chat – I ask Hezkore and Mark what to do with it before removing. But if it’s useful I can restore.
3. Don’t know about unprofessional status of discord; I like it.

Notes:

-1*exp => -exp.

Monkey2 already have Pow() function in monkey.math.

[nerobotParticipant]

Maybe you need fresher version of mx2cc to compile.

[nerobotParticipant]

There is the miniz module.

And example of its usage here:

Let me simplify code given above.

DataBuffer class has Load method – use it instead of FileStream etc.

Also there is a PeekString (for this example) and many other methods to operate with bytes in buffer – read docs of them.

My version:

Monkey

#Import "<std>" #Import "assets/" Using std.. Class Test Method New( path:String ) bytes=DataBuffer.Load( path ) Assert( bytes<>Null,"Can't load data from "+path+"!" ) End Property Bytes:DataBuffer() ' make public read-only property Return bytes End Private Field bytes:DataBuffer End Function Main () ' first: place netepad.exe into /assets/ folder near this source file Local t := New Test( "asset::notepad.exe" ) Local buf:=t.Bytes ' assign to local to use short variable Print "Data buffer is " + buf.Length + " bytes" ' Start of a Win32 executable is always "MZ" (for Mark Zbikowski, DOS developer!): Print buf.PeekString( 0,1 ) Print buf.PeekString( 1,1 ) End

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39

#Import "<std>" #Import "assets/"   Using std..   Class Test Method New( path:String ) bytes=DataBuffer.Load( path ) Assert( bytes<>Null,"Can't load data from "+path+"!" ) End Property Bytes:DataBuffer() ' make public read-only property Return bytes End Private Field bytes:DataBuffer End Function Main () ' first: place netepad.exe into /assets/ folder near this source file Local t := New Test( "asset::notepad.exe" ) Local buf:=t.Bytes ' assign to local to use short variable Print "Data buffer is " + buf.Length + " bytes" ' Start of a Win32 executable is always "MZ" (for Mark Zbikowski, DOS developer!): Print buf.PeekString( 0,1 ) Print buf.PeekString( 1,1 ) End

[nerobotParticipant]

Maybe std.memory.DataBuffer class is what you need.

[nerobotParticipant]

Look at %monkey2%\modules\std\collections\container.monkey2.

There are base types, but they are fake – have no methods. So we cant use them as usual.

Also Array struct don’t implement IContainer.

So I don’t know how to achive universal processing of any collection.

Hi,

here is my localization system – https://github.com/engor/m2-localization

This is easy to use lightweight system that allow you
to keep all texts localized on-the-fly.

[nerobotParticipant]

I thought about converter.

I think such converter can be sold.

[nerobotParticipant]

It is useful to be able to declare an abstract Class Function in order to enforce any derived classes to define the function (a style of contractual programming, I guess?).  Certainly they make sense within an interface, don’t they?

‘Static’ mean that this logic is common for whole class/type, not for every instance.

To declare common logic for instances which can be overriden you should use virtual methods (not a functions).

To prevent overriding in derived classed you can mark methods as Final.

To force user to override method – mark it as Abstract; methods of interfaces are abstract by defaul.

[nerobotParticipant]

My suggestion is good for a short improvements. But if you have long changes then there can be many merges of m2 repo in yours.

But anyway – the only main repo here is brl/monkey2, and to keep its commits clear Mark have to always use Squash&Merge option (to get single commit of all pulled changes). And I think he does it already.

[nerobotParticipant]

You can’t override static methods in java or c#, so I think Mark have to deny it too.
