TatClass.DefineProp Method
Registers a new property in the class. You don't need to register published properties since they are imported automatically by Delphi scripter.
Syntax
Unit: atScript
function TatClass.DefineProp(AName: string; ADataType: TatTypeKind; AGetter: TMachineProc; ASetter: TMachineProc; APropertyClass: TClass = nil; AIsClassProp: Boolean = False; AIndexCount: Integer = 0): TatProperty;Parameters
| <-> | Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| AName | string | The name by which the property will be accessible from script. |
|
| ADataType | TatTypeKind | The data type of the property. |
|
| AGetter | TMachineProc | The method wrapper which will be called by the script when the property is read from script. Those are the methods that should actually read or write the real Delphi property. |
|
| ASetter | TMachineProc | The method wrapper which will be called by the script when the property is written from script. Those are the methods that should actually read or write the real Delphi property. |
|
| APropertyClass | TClass | Optional: Default value is nil If ADataType is tkClass, then APropertyClass must contain the class of the property (TFont, for example). Otherwise, PropertyClass must be nil. |
|
| AIsClassProp | Boolean | Optional: Default value is False Indicates if the property is a regular property (accessible from object instance) or a class property. |
|
| AIndexCount | Integer | Optional: Default value is 0 If the registered property is an indexed property, then AIndexCount must contain the number of dimensions of the property. The function will return the newly created TatProperty. If a property with the name AName already exists in the class, nothing is created, and the function will return the existing TatProperty object. |
