Hello, I'm trying to register some classes for AngelScript, but I'm receiving some very vague error messages. I'd like to register my 'property' class which handles the different properties/settings for my program. In CPP, I can do the following thing:
property("test") = "bla";
...
std::cout << property("test").value(); // prints out 'bla'
Here's the source code for the property class. Maybe it isn't a very nice solution, but this way I don't need to have a property instance for every property.
#include <string>
#include <boost/unordered_map.hpp>
class property {
public:
property(std::string name) : m_name(name) { }
void operator=(const std::string value)
{
m_hashmap[m_name] = value;
}
void set(const std::string value)
{
operator=(value);
}
std::string value() const
{
return m_hashmap[m_name];
}
private:
std::string m_name;
static boost::unordered_map<std::string, std::string> m_hashmap;
};
I'm not sure how I should register this for AngelScript, but I thought that since the class only has 1 string member, it should be a value type. I also thought I only needed to register a constructor and a assignment behavior, so here's how I register it (as_check checks the return value, m_as is a pointer to asIScriptEngine):
void new_property(std::string name, property *memory)
{
new(memory) property(name);
}
...
as_check(m_as->RegisterObjectType("property", sizeof(property), asOBJ_VALUE | asOBJ_APP_CLASS_CA));
as_check(m_as->RegisterObjectBehaviour("property", asBEHAVE_CONSTRUCT, "void f(const string)", asFUNCTION(new_property), asCALL_CDECL_OBJLAST));
as_check(m_as->RegisterObjectBehaviour("property", asBEHAVE_ASSIGNMENT, "void f(const string)", asMETHOD(property, set), asCALL_THISCALL));
When I execute this (AS):
void main()
{
property("test") = "42";
}
I get the following error message:
Quote:| Error (line 0, col 0): Type 'property' is missing behaviours Error (line 0, col 0): Invalid configuration |
which isn't helping me a lot. So I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong. I've looked at the documentation and the vector-addon, but I don't know what's causing the problem.
