Gs3

I also had this problem when I initially tried it.

And you resolved it....how?

[Cubical]

I never tried again because I stopped developing and playing for the most part due to the lag not only on the classic servers but on my UC playerworld.

Twinny it will probably take a while for it to be enabled...

Additional following things can be important to know:
- existing scripts will still run, we don't force the new syntax and semantic, but it can be interesting for server-side logic and also new client-side code
- just add a //#GS3 line to your script to use the new syntax and semantic
- some syntax of the new Graal script is already supported but currently ignored (like var statements)

That is implying that it is already enabled

Its currently enabled on Zone Iphone but not Delteria Iphone. The reason probably is because its half done? It works in NPC Weapons but not classes.

[callimuc]

it is also disabled on Era iPhone

PHP Code:

//#GS3

function onCreated() {
  echo(getAddition(1,2));
}

function getAddition(a:number, b:number):number { 
  var result:number = a + b; 
  return result; 
} 


Works on era, but the class example does not.

We have not enabled it yet on Graal servers. Part of the syntax has already been accepted (but ignored) for a few years.

Guess it's very lenient..i figured it would have kicked up a shitstorm considering you didn't specify a return type for onCreated() (i.e. void)

So how do we go about getting it enabled?

For what it's worth the V8 NPC-Server prototype that we tested was a much better idea than this.

You should have made it work then >: (

[Gunderak]

Just tested this on Zone, why... It didn't give any error at all.

PHP Code:

  var list:int[];
  list = {1, 2, "Test"}; 


Also curious, why this didn't work.

PHP Code:

//#GS3
class Person extends TStaticVar{
  var nickname:string;
}
function onCreated():void{
  //Create an array of type Person
  var list:Person[];
  //Create some Person objects.
  var me:Person = new Person();
  me.nickname = "Nick";
  var them:Person = new Person();
  them.nickname = "Someone";
  //Add them to the list
  list.add(me);
  list.add(them);
  //Echo each Person element in the list
  for(var someone:Person in list){
    echo("Name: "@someone.nickname);
  }
} 


It does nothing, no errors either.

Also will there be constructors?

Sorry for the spam, but will we be able to extend a TSocket ?

[Admins]

Yes arrays seem to be bugged, we will work on it.

[Twinny]

My desires:

Constructors (being able to overload would also be awesome but perhaps taking it too far)

PHP Code:

class Test {
  var myname : string;
  var myage : int;

  function Test(myname: string) {
    this.myname = myname;
  }
  //Because overloading is fun
  function Test(myname : string, myage : number) {
    this.myname = myname;
    this.myage = myage;
  }

  function echoValues() : void {
    printf("My name is %s and my age is %i", this.myname, (this.myage? this.myage : "Unknown"));
  }
}

function onCreated() : void {
  var TestObj : Test = new Test("Twinny", 25);
  TestObj.echoValues(); 


I know getters/setters will be on the way but this just seems more natural.

I added that printf as it will fail since it's not being referenced in that class(see: extern). For this, perhaps being able to simply prepend global. to global functions would be better. On a similar note, i've not tried but i hope we could use something like super.whatever to access base class items we inherited from :o
