Hi cameni!

Object.getOwnPropertyNames(this)

Code: [Select]

...
$ctx   // What is it?


[cameni]

A function that returns the context where the object was created. In theory should allow you to access global properties of the script where the object was created, though it may not be always clear where that was.

Interesting!

Code: [Select]

this.ctx = $ctx(this);

Correctly?

[necro]

no, this might be enough:

Code: [Select]

var $ctx;

You can access the methods easily by

Code: [Select]

$ctx.method()

[cameni]

$ctx is defined as a method on interface objects, so:

Code: [Select]

var obj = // create object somehow ...
obj.$ctx().something = 1; //sets global variable "something" in the context of the obj's script

Hi cameni!

Code: [Select]

var Vec3 = function (x, y, z) {
    this.x = +x;
    this.y = +y;
    this.z = +z;
};

Vec3.prototype = {
    constructor: Vec3
};

Why is that?

Code: [Select]

this.x = +x;
And not so

Code: [Select]

this.x = x;

It's a weird JS optimization trick.
See http://www.sitepoint.com/understanding-asm-js/ and http://asmjs.org/spec/latest/#parameter-type-annotations

I understood.
This means that the value of the "X" is of type double.

Thank!

Hi cameni!

Does not work.

Code: [Select]

// Truck_trailer.js

function update_frame(dt, engine, brake, steering, parking) {
...

if (this.init === undefined) {
var pos = this.geom.get_pos();
var rot = this.geom.get_rot();
var pos = relative_pos(pos, rot, 10, 180, 50);

this.trailer = $world.create_instance("SteelRat/Trailer/Trailer", pos, rot, false);
this.trailer.$ctx().truckMover = "TestVal";

this.log_inf("---- PTM: Truck mover: Init: OK");

this.init = true;
}
}


Code: [Select]

// Trailer.js

function update_frame(dt, engine, brake, steering, parking) {
...

if (this.init === undefined) {
if (this.$ctx().truckMover) { /* The subject test I have tried a lot of options, the effect -> nothing */
this.log_inf("---- PTM: Trailer: Init: OK");
this.init = true;
}
}
}

There was a bug in this version that may have a connection to this one, we'll have to test it.

Ok. Thank!
