the declaring file for a given type via the new member function
osgIntrospection::Type::getDeclaringFile. This information is useful
in order to know what header to include when auto-generating wrappers
for a given type.
During the C# wrapper generator development I've been keeping the
declaring file configuration state up-to-date manually with changes
to OSG, and it's proven to require substantial effort. So it would be
extremely valuable to get this change in before 2.0 to reduce maintenance
during the lifetime of the release. It'll also be equally useful to
others looking to create wrapper generators using osgIntrospection.
This is a fairly simple change and was tested with a fresh rebuild of the
entire suite of osgWrapper libraries, so it should be relatively low risk
(fingers crossed)."
"
the main problem is the wrapper generation:
The PropertyInfo class use MethodInfo class to access to the value.
When the property are define with the I_Property* macro,
the MethodInfo use by the property to have access to the value
are instancied in the I_Property* macro, but there
are already instantied by the I_Method* macro before
secondary problem:
- the function used by the property could no be customized
in the genwrapper.conf file
- an array property can't insert a value
- the std::map reflector (and indexedProperty in general) haven't remove method
- about the help in wrapper ... why not ...
solution :
To use the function define by the I_Method, I add a MethodInfo variable in the I_Method0 macro
old macro :
#define I_Method0(ret, fn) (\
params.clear(),\
addMethod(new osgIntrospection::TypedMethodIn
fo0<reflected_type, ret >(qualifyName(#fn), &reflected_type::fn, params)))
new macro :
#define I_Method0(ret, fn, signature, briefHelp, detailedHelp) \
params.clear(); \
osgIntrospection::MethodInfo* signature = addMethod(new osgIntrospection::TypedMethodInfo0<reflected_type, ret >(qualifyName(#fn), &reflected_type::fn, params, briefHelp, detailedHelp)); sink(signature)
the osgIntrospection::MethodInfo* signature is used by the I_Property macro to define the MethodInfo that it use
so for I_Property macro :
old macro :
#define I_PropertyWithReturnType(t, n, r) \
cap=addProperty(new osgIntrospection::PropertyInfo(osgIntrospection::Reflection::getType(typeid(reflected_type)), osgIntrospection::Reflection::getType(typeid(t)), #n, \
I_Method0(t, get##n), \
I_Method1(r, set##n, IN, t, value)))
new macro:
#define I_SimpleProperty(t, n, get, set) \
get, \
set))
The genwrapper has been modified in this way.
The method signature is define by the prototype of the method
For example, the "const char* libraryName();" have "__C5_char_P1__libraryName" for signature
solution for secondary problem:
The genwrapper accept new tokens in the configuration to custumize the property.
The new PropertyInserter and the CustomPropertyInsertAttribute class has been defined
The PropertyRemover has been added to the StdMapReflector
The _briefHelp and _detailedHelp variable has been added in PropertyInfo, MethodInfo and ContructorInfo class
modification:
I have modify the genwrapper files
Configuration.cpp Configuration.h add some tokens to custumize the property
Doxyfile.template add the comment in the output xml
genwrapper.conf customize some property in osg::Geometry
RegistryBuilder.h RegistryBuilder.cpp add the process_help function (to extract help from xml)
TypeRegister.cpp TypeRegister.h optimize the property detection
TypeDesc.h TypeDesc.cpp modify FunctionDesc and PropertyDesc
WrapperGenerator.h WrapperGenerator.cpp modify the output
I also modify the fallowing osgIntrospection files:
include/osgIntrospection/Attributes add the PropertyInserter and the CustomPropertyInsertAttribute class
include/osgIntrospection/ConstructorInfo add the _briefHelp and _detailedHelp variable in the ConstructorInfo class
add access function for the two new variables (_briefHelp and _detailedHelp)
modify the constructor to define the two new variables (_briefHelp and _detailedHelp)
include/osgIntrospection/MethodInfo add the _briefHelp and _detailedHelp variable in the MethodInfo class
add access function for the two new variables (_briefHelp and _detailedHelp)
modify the constructor to define the two new variables (_briefHelp and _detailedHelp)
include/osgIntrospection/PropertyInfo add the _briefHelp and _detailedHelp variable in the PropertyInfo class
add access function for the two new variables (_briefHelp and _detailedHelp)
modify the constructor to define the two new variables (_briefHelp and _detailedHelp)
include/osgIntrospection/ReflectionMacro remove unused I_Property* macro
modify all I_Method macro to accept the help string
modify all I_Method macro to define a MethodInfo signature
include/osgIntrospection/Reflector add the PropertyInserter in StdVectorReflector and StdListReflector
add the PropertyRemover in the StdMapReflector
include/osgIntrospection/StaticMethodInfo modify all StaticMethodInfo* to accept the help in parameter
include/osgIntrospection/TypedMethodInfo modify all TypedMethodInfo* to accept the help in parameter
include/osgIntrospection/TypedConstructorInfo modify all TypedConstructorInfo* to accept the help in parameter
include/osgIntrospection/Type add the _briefHelp and _detailedHelp variable in the Type class

"bug fix to reflect the wchar_t in Value and Value.cpp I add the toWString() function.
in Type and Type.cpp I just add two function to get a map of propertyList and a map of methodList
i need this map in my editor a i think it's could be util to put this functionnality in osgIntrospection,
