passing a table and transforming it to code
« on: July 03, 2013, 02:59:50 PM »
Hi everyone,

I have to do this for a number of properties, and wondering if I can automate such that I give a tab sepparated table like this:
    type   propname   objname
    type   propname   objname
    type   propname   objname
    type   propname   objname
    type   propname   objname

and each row is transfomed to an accessor like the code shown below.  I was thinking of using several expand_alias command in a macro for this, but there does not seem to be a way to silently pass the parameters to the expand-alias command. 

    /// <summary>
    ///     Accessor for the %(propname) property in the %(objname) object.
    /// </summary>
    public %(type) %(propname)
    {
        get { return %(objname).%(propname); }
        set { %(objname).%(propname) = value; }
    }

Anyone have a macro that does something like this?

Any help appreciated,
Ted

See this thread how to do similar things. Here and here are some more examples for custom alias helper macros.
Good luck, HS2
