Is there a smart way to access an object and it's properties from
a string.
Suppose I have an object of class Car and properties of weight and
maxSpeed. If I read in a config file that has some config
parameters for this car,
weight: 5000
maxSpeed: 248
along with a whole bunch of other parameters, is there a decent
way to set up my code to fill those parameters in without using a
bunch of case of if statements?
What you could do is add two methods: Serialize() As String,
Deserialize(data As String)
As long as you have both methods with the data in the same order,
you will be able to read/write the object properties. Here are
examples of the two methods (using REALbasic 2006)
I don't think this applies really since I may need to access these
values in any order, or from various places that would set the values.
Thanks though,
Kevin
