Hi, MonkeyPro54 is now up! The major new feature is 'reflection', a technique where a program can dynamically inspect/modify/invoke/manipulate its consts, globals, fields, methods, functions and classes. See the new reflection module section on the wiki/IDE 'modules' page for some docs. More coming... Also, there's a little demo in bananas/mak/reflectiontest that enumerates all decls in your app. Modules: reflection module added! mojo xna - added WP7 support for accelerometer. mojo graphics - DrawText alignment offsets now Floor()ed. xna mojo - music functions now disabled if MediaPlayer.GameHasControl is false at startup. xna mojo - added WP7 support for multitouch. cpp monkey.lang - fixed double fclose() in LoadString. monkey.lang - added String.FromChars( chars:Int[] ) Targets: xna - Target solution now includes windows phone project. xna - Added XNA_ACCELEROMETER_ENABLED="true" to xna CONFIG.TXT glfw - tweaked compiler settings a bit so debug builds go a bit faster. stdcpp/glfw/ios - moved #includes to separate main.h files. Hoping to precompile these eventually... Trans (v1.30): Reflection support added! XNA builds now only build Windows version - much faster than building both Windows/XBOX! Added more flexible interface casting - interfaces can now be cast to and from ANY class/interface. I thought this choked AS, but now doesn't seem to... Fixed C++ cast-interface-to-object bug. Added String.FromChars( chars:Int[] ) |

nice! I was looking forward to reflection thanks |
| ||
Just tested v54 with Diddy's GUI test on HTML5, FLASH, GLFW (Win), Android and XNA - all works!! Samah's checking out the reflection mod now... it'll be interesting to see what he says - (Samah - LeetJavaHaxor + Fanboi! - LOL ;P) |
| ||
Nice! Thanks Mark! |
| ||
Hey Mark, just wondering why you have removed AppTitle from the app.monkey (since the code is still there in the targets)? Also you left a test (Global Test:=100) variable in mojo.monkey. |
| ||
I had to "stubify" AppTitle in MonkeyLua... :( Samah - LeetJavaHaxor + Fanboi! - LOL ;P) You know it! ;) |
| ||
Nice, I was looking forward to adding WP7 support for accelerometer. |
| ||
woohoo, good stuff :) |
| ||
Nice. The docs do not mention the reflection module though. The online wiki does. |
| ||
Always great to see many improvements, but selfishly, more so to see so many XNA improvements :) |
| ||
Reflection - that's what I needed in the port flixel for Monkey. Thank you! |
| ||
Always great to see many improvements, but selfishly, more so to see so many XNA improvements :) Yep - same here! Mark, the help advises the Accelerometer (AccelX, AccelY and AccelZ) is not available for Windows Phone. Also confirming Touch and Accelerometer working ok! |

If I use the reflection and the fontmachine module i can't compile my code. Thats realy strange. The error is the following: C:/Monkey/MonkeyPro54/modules/fontmachine/bitmapfont.monkey<27> : Error : Method Font.GetTxtWidth:Int(Local text:String) must be implemented by class BitmapFont |
| ||
When using the reflection module, it compiles everything - so all your code must be compilable. |
| ||
Updating the fontmachine module should do it. |
| ||
@Blitzbat: Be sure to be using latest version of the FontMachine module. it's been updated several times in the last four days. |
| ||
Thanks! Now it works! |
| ||
Exactly what I was waiting for - can't wait to check this out. |
| ||
@marksibly is there any chance of search (with intellisense style matching) being added to the online wiki docs? It's the only thing I really miss from my old doc system. Cheers |
| ||
This, and that you get no docs when you're offline. |

and that you get no docs when you're offline. You can also select 'offline docs' within IDE options if for some reason you don't have online access. |
| ||
It would also be nice if that was automatic. :) |
| ||
@therevills Wow thanks, i haven't seen this one. Still too much used to the BlitzMax prefs. |
| ||
This means: http://www.monkeycoder.co.nz/Community/post.php?topic=2038&post=19747 that we can have scripting now? :) |
