Since yesterday the SGPropertyNode methods getAttribute() and setAttribute() are available in the Nasal props.Node class. Nasal doesn't have bool variables, so <bool> means just values 1 and 0 in the following examples:
----------------------------------------------------------------------- Syntax: <bool> prop.getAttribute(<attribute:string>) where <attribute:string> is one of "READ", "WRITE", "ARCHIVE", "TRACE_READ", "TRACE_WRITE", "USERARCHIVE", "TIED". The function returns the state as 0 (unset) or 1 (set), or nil in case of error (because an invalid <attribute> was used). Example: var foo = props.globals.getNode("foo", 1); if (foo.getAttribute("USERARCHIVE")) { print("Node " ~ foo.getPath() ~ " gets written to autosave.xml"); } ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Syntax: <bool> props.setAttribute(<attribute:string>, <state:bool>) where <attribute:string> is one of "READ", "WRITE", "ARCHIVE", "TRACE_READ", "TRACE_WRITE", "USERARCHIVE". The function sets the respective attribute and returns the old value (like getAttribute()), or nil on error. Example: var foo = props.globals.getNode("foo", 1); foo.setAttribute("TRACE_READ", 1); # turn on tracing for one minute settimer(func { foo.setAttribute("TRACE_READ", 0) }, 60); ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The property attributes are also shown in the property browser after one has Ctrl-clicked on a "." entry. Here's again what they mean: attribute browser-flag meaning ----------------------------------------------------------------------- READ r (if unset) usually set; makes property readable WRITE w (if unset) usually set; makes property writable TRACE_READ R reports every read/write access with TRACE_WRITE W --log-level=info. Example log line: TRACE: Read node /foo[0], value "0" ARCHIVE A property is saved with "File"->"Save" USERARCHIVE U property is autosaved on exit to %APPDATA%\flightgear.org\autosave.xml or ~/.fgfs/autosave.xml TIED T property value can also be read/written to directly from C++ code (not only via SGPropertyNode methods), in which case listeners aren't triggered m. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
