Hello,
after watching Walters Talk about Component Programming ( link
Bellow ) I was quite fond of his pipelining approach.
I tried the following and had to realize that this way using UFCS
isn't working ( or I do something wrong ).
// I want to write On Canvas1 | draw Shape1 | draw Shape2 | ...
in code ( not working ):
canvas1.shape1.shape2.draw()
// Which in essence would be ( working ):
shape2( shape1( canvas1 ) ).draw()
// With these Classes
class Canvas {
public:
drawTarget() {
// activate as Draw Target
}
}
class Shape {
public:
Shape opCall( Canvas canvas ) {
canvas.drawTarget() ;
return this ;
}
Shape opCall( Shape otherShape ) {
otherShape.draw()
return this ;
}
void draw() {
// Draw yourself Draw calls
}
}
FYI: Its OpenGL stuff, Canvas would be the Frambuffer or FBOs,
and Shape abstrcted draw calls. I have some more building blocks
which would nicely fit into this pipelining.
1. Is there any way that I could make my wish syntax work with
D's current features ?
2. Is there a reason that this does not work with UFCS, besides
"not implemented yet" ?
3. If not 1. Would this be a valid feature requst ?
Thanks for any insights,
Cheers, ParticlePeter !
