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
This is needed when get properties or methods have to return a
value in case of failure or to initialize parameters.
The way used is to generate an intermediate function that will
initialize the parameters and then invoke the "user" function.
You can add in the .eo file the eo_prefix:... and data:... in case
you want to override respectively the Eo prefix and the data type.
If "data: null" is used, no data type will be added.
The first object that we generate with Eolian is Evas_Line, as it is a
simple one.
Two files are generated during build:
- the .eo.c contains the APIs definitions invoking Eo, the Eo functions
extracting the parameters and calling the hand written functions and
Eo structures to define the objects. These hand written functions are
located in e.g evas_object_line.c.
- the .eo.h contains the APIs and Eo prototyes.
We will continue with the other objects. If you note something wrong,
please update us asap:
