I'm afraid but this breaks the mono bindings too close to a release.
This also fixes the missing docs errors by adding a lot of inconsistent
placeholder text ("No description supplied.", "TBD") which will make
finding them later on more complicated.
I was the one that asked for this feature but it is not critical at this
point, so I suggest we explore some refinements (like T8291) before landing
this patch in its current state.
This reverts commit 2946cb3c32.
The things that require docs include classes, variables, typedecls,
events and methods/properties. Implements, params, returns, parts
and struct/enum fields don't require them.
Empty/whitespace only string does not count as documentation.
This new syntax separates the parent class from extensions, in
a familiar way to similar to e.g. Java. Since changing everything
at once is a lot of effort, implement it alongside for the time
being.
Complex types (i.e. list, array, hash, accessor etc.) now do not require
pointers with them anymore (the pointer is implied) and the same goes for
class handles. Eolian now explicitly disallows creating pointers to these
as well. This is the first part of the work to remove pointers from Eolian
completely, with the goal of simplifying the DSL (higher level) and therefore
making it easier for bindings (as well as easier API usage).
@feature
Instead of "@in type name;" we now use "@in name: type;". This change
is done because of consistency with the rest of Eolian; pretty much
every other part of Eolian syntax uses the latter form.
This is a big breaking change in the .eo format, so please update your
.eo files accordingly and compile Elementary together with the EFL.
@feature
From now on, there are 5 builtin complex types, particularly accessor, array,
iterator, hash and list. All other types are simple - they can't have a complex
part. Also, the <> now binds to the type itself, not the pointer. More builtin
complex types will be added as needed.
