All methods exposed to the Nasal props module now accept an
optional first parameter refering to another node by a relative
path.
(Thanks to Philosopher for the initial patch)
Replace SG_GENERAL by more specific log classes in many places.
Allow "," to separate logging classes (using "|" is odd on the
command-line).
Also add new option to make logging more useful for developers.
You can use:
--log-level=debug --log-class=environment
to only get environment debug messages, or
--log-level=debug --log-class=sound,ai
to only get debug messages related to the sound or AI subsystem.
- make some char* "const" to silence warnings
This removes the warning that (rarely) occurred if one wrote to a
write protected property with setprop(). While this was a useful
hint, it needlessly floods the terminal if one protected a property
intentionally. (Consider to add an SG_DEBUG warning instead.) It's
now the caller's job to check for the result if it actually cares.
the case where the removed child has no other referants, otherwise it
will be deleted on function exit. Also give the ghost type a name for
cleaner debugging.
where chosen to match the SGPropertyNode::WRITE/READ symbol names and
should make it more consistent, but this isn't really something that
should be exposed to the Nasal developer.)
getAttribute("archive") returns 1 if the attribute is set, and 0 otherwise.
Allow to query and to set all properties by not specifying an attribute
string: getAttribute() returns all attributes bit coded in an integer,
and setAttribute(attr) sets all attributes. No assumptions may be made
about the meaning of the bits -- they can be changed in future fgfs releases.
The only valid use is to compare or set attribute numbers obtained in the
same fgfs run. This is meant for allowing full copies of property branches.
Also add getAttribute query strings "children" for the number of children,
and "alias".
value on a property. This becomes a NaN when converted to a numeric
value, which then percolated into the C++ world where it ultimately
caused a crash in YASim's turbulence code. While converting nil to
NaN isn't *strictly* wrong, it's dangerous for this reason. Toss a
Nasal exception instead. Hopefully this won't break too much
preexisting code.
with an invalid path, as in getprop("/sim/model/737") or x.getNode("f:1").
Forward sg's error message to the Nasal runtime error function instead, so
you get something like:
Nasal runtime error: name must begin with alpha or '_'
at /home/m/fgfs/Base.local/Nasal/props.nas, line 30
Unfortunately, the location points to the line where the ghost wrapper
sits, rather than the offending script line.
