We don't need to keep this in eo files anymore because the APIs
using them are now fully in C. This also allows removal of the
event callback builtin from Eolian.
This allows us to unify retrieval of docs for both regular and
overridden funcs without having two separate APIs. It's currently
missing validation and docgen is still not adjusted properly for
it either, but at least there's this. Enables retrieval of docs
for overridden funcs by default as well.
As there is no need to have separate is_auto, is_empty and
is_pure_virtual for functions and implements (each function has
its own base implement by default) I removed the function ones.
Instead, I added a way to retrieve a function's base implement
so that you can instead do the checks on the implement even when
you only have the function.
I also moved base implement build directly into the parser instead
of the database filler. That allows for significant cleanup. I
also removed distinction of implement pointers in Eolian_Function
for get and set as implements now always contain an entire thing
so the pointer was always the same anyway.
Things should still behave more or less the same, but ordering
of generated functions has changed because ordering of implements
has changed.
Previously one API used just virtual (incorrect) and one used
virtual_pure (which just sounds weird). So unify with a single
name, pure_virtual, similar as in other lanugages.
This does not change eo file syntax yet.
Now all error/unknown/etc values returned from APIs are zero,
previously it was a mix of zeroes and minus ones. Also, some
enums that had no error/invalid value before have one now, which
allows for better distinction between what is an error and what
is an intended result.
Strictness of various Eolian APIs has been enhanced, for example
eolian_class_function_get_by_name now won't return anything if
you request an EOLIAN_PROPERTY and the found func is just an
EOLIAN_PROP_GET, and various APIs won't accept arbitrary inputs
like EOLIAN_UNRESOLVED or EOLIAN_PROPERTY now, instead you will
need to provide EOLIAN_PROP_GET, EOLIAN_PROP_SET or EOLIAN_METHOD
explicitly.
The purpose of this is to reduce potential bugs and fix ambiguous
behavior. Thanks to use of EINA_SAFETY, appropriate errors should
be printed into terminal when an API is used incorrectly.
Now you can't use the same syntax as you would for a method to
implement a property as whole, instead you need to specify the
getter and/or setter explicitly. This is to allow parent classes
to expand their properties without altering behavior of the child
classes.
The system now verifies whether the class of an implement or
constructor exists within the inheritance hierarchy. It also
properly checks duplicates everywhere and prints better error
messages.
Instead of
Other.Class.some_prop.get;
Other.Class.some_prop.set;
you can write
Other.Class.some_prop { get; set; }
The other syntax is deprecated from now on.
New API function eolian_doc_token_ref_get will resolve the kind of
reference in the given token and extract the necessary data you
might need for further use, for example class and function for
methods, or struct and field for struct field. It also supports
event references that will be added into Eolian later.
EFL will be switched to the new resolver (by changing the validator
code) during the next step.
This provides an API to tokenize Eolian docstrings. It does not
yet switch the rest of the infra to it, but it does have tests.
It doesn't verify correctness of references, as that's Eolian's
job. Therefore it's also your job to provide it with strings that
do not contain invalid references. Lua bindings are to come and
a complete switch will be done later.
@feature
Summary:
Currently eolian abbreviates when only the last word of class name and
the first word of method name are same, but this patch abbreviates
generated c name of function to remove all duplicated affix.
For example, "efl_io_closer_fd_closer_fd_set" will be "efl_io_closer_fd_set".
