HscriptInsanity

Tip

This is my first time messing with / writing code this complex so I apologize in advance for any bad code!! (feel free to open a pull request if you can improve this project)
This project is also still a heavy work in progress... see the TO-DO for all implemented / missing features!

Experimental fork of Hscript (Parse and evaluate Haxe expressions dynamically).

README content has been moved to the wiki. Make sure to take a look!

TO-DO

compiled

• abstracts

  • static fields
  • instance fields
  • cast from / to types
  • overload operators (@:op)

• enum abstracts

  • static fields
  • constructors

• enums

  • constructors
  • constructor arguments

• typedefs

  • type alias import
  • anonymous structure

• module level fields

  • import

scripted

• types

  • classes
    • extends
      • Nothing (or scripted class)
      • Real¹ classes
    • implements*
      • Nothing (or scripted interface)
      • Real¹ interfaces
    • fields
      • property getters & setters
        • accessor error checking in modules
      • scripted toString
      • iterables and iterators
    • abstract class
  • enums
  • typedefs (type alias only)
  • module level fields
  • interfaces*
    • extends
      • Nothing (or scripted interface)
      • Real¹ interfaces
    • fields
      • property getters & setters
      • dynamic functions
      • finals
  • abstracts
    • abstract enum
    • underlying type

• general

  • fix compile errors in HashLink (for now)
  • fix module exception call stack (can merge?)
  • abstract type fields (currently untested)

other

• import keyword
  • module level fields
• using keyword
  • explicit type checking?
• switch keyword
  • complex pattern matching
    • capture variables
    • extractors
    • enum
    • array
    • struct
    • guard conditions
    • multiple values (sorta)
• Printer class
  • fix printed expressions with escape characters
  • module declaration to string ?
• Checker class
  • needs urgent updates (lol)

So why is it called HscriptInsanity

It represents my dwindling mental state as I figure how to modify this library!!

1. "Real" refers to classes generated by the Haxe compiler (i.e., non scripted classes) ↩ ↩² ↩³
