Since there might be tricky cases in the analyzer (in the case of unsafe
lines) which would need to be properly checked again. Instead, this
splits the code generator in two functions and use information set by
the analyzer to tell which function to use, without a need to re-check.
In attribute expressions (`a.b`) it's possible that the base has an
incorrect syntax and thus become a nullptr expression in the tree. This
commit add the check for this case to fail gracefully instead of
crashing.
Lambda syntax is the same as a the function syntax (using the same
`func` keyword) except that the name is optional and it can be embedded
anywhere an expression is expected. E.g.:
func _ready():
var my_lambda = func(x):
print(x)
my_lambda.call("hello")
There was a mixup between String and StringName keys. Now they're
clearly separated. This also means you have to consider which type
you're using for the dictionary keys and how you are accessing them.
This ensures that annotations that rely on the datatype (such as
@export) can validated it timely, allowing compound expressions instead
of only literal values.
- Use `Array[type]` for type-hints. e.g.:
`var array: Array[int] = [1, 2, 3]`
- Array literals are typed if their storage is typed (variable
asssignment of as argument in function all). Otherwise they are
untyped.
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
Values that are passed by reference are not suited for being constructed
at compile time because in this case they would be shared across all the
construction statements.
- ClassDoc added to GDScript and property reflection data were extracted
from parse tree
- GDScript comments are collected from tokenizer for documentation and
applied to the ClassDoc by the GDScript compiler
- private docs were excluded (name with underscore prefix and doesn't
have any doc comments)
- default values (of non exported vars), arguments are extraced from the
parser
- Integrated with GDScript 2.0 and new enums were added.
- merge conflicts fixed
- Use the new functions in Variant to determine the validity and resulting
type of operators.
- Split the operator function in codegen between binary and unary, since
the unary ones have now a special requirement of having the second
argument to be the NIL type when requesting info.
