## Detailed Description

A script module can be thought of a library of script functions, classes, and global variables.

A pointer to the module interface is obtained by calling asIScriptEngine::GetModule. The module can then be built from a single or multiple script files, also known as script sections. Alternatively pre-built bytecode can be loaded, if it has been saved from a previous build.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ AddScriptSection()

virtual int asIScriptModule::AddScriptSection | ( | const char * | name,
|  | const char * | code,
|  | size_t | codeLength = `0`,
|  | int | lineOffset = `0`
| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Parameters

  [in] | name | The name of the script section
  [in] | code | The script code buffer
  [in] | codeLength | The length of the script code
  [in] | lineOffset | An offset that will be added to compiler message line numbers

Returns
  A negative value on error.

Return values

  asINVALID_ARG | The code argument is null.
  asNOT_SUPPORTED | Compiler support is disabled in the engine.
  asOUT_OF_MEMORY | The necessary memory to hold the script code couldn't be allocated.

This adds a script section to the module. The script section isn't processed with this call. Only when Build is called will the script be parsed and compiled into executable byte code.

Error messages from the compiler will refer to the name of the script section and the position within it. Normally each section is the content of a source file, so it is recommended to name the script sections as the name of the source file.

The code added is copied by the engine, so there is no need to keep the original buffer after the call. Note that this can be changed by setting the engine property asEP_COPY_SCRIPT_SECTIONS with asIScriptEngine::SetEngineProperty.

## ◆ BindAllImportedFunctions()

virtual int asIScriptModule::BindAllImportedFunctions | ( |  | ) |
| pure virtual

Returns
  A negative value on error.

Return values

  asERROR | An error occurred.
  asCANT_BIND_ALL_FUNCTIONS | Not all functions where bound.

This functions tries to bind all imported functions in the module by searching for matching functions in the suggested modules. If a function cannot be bound the function will give an error asCANT_BIND_ALL_FUNCTIONS, but it will continue binding the rest of the functions.

## ◆ BindImportedFunction()

virtual int asIScriptModule::BindImportedFunction | ( | asUINT | importIndex,
|  | asIScriptFunction * | func
| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Parameters

  [in] | importIndex | The index of the imported function.
  [in] | func | The true function that will be bound to the imported function.

Returns
  A negative value on error.

Return values

  asNO_FUNCTION | importIndex or func is incorrect.
  asINVALID_ARG | importIndex is invalid or func is null.
  asNOT_SUPPORTED | func is not a script function or registered function.
  asINVALID_INTERFACE | The signature of function doesn't match the import statement.

The imported function is only bound if the functions have the exact same signature, i.e the same return type, and parameters.

Delegate objects are not supported.

## ◆ Build()

virtual int asIScriptModule::Build | ( |  | ) |
| pure virtual

Returns
  A negative value on error

Return values

  asINVALID_CONFIGURATION | The engine configuration is invalid.
  asERROR | The script failed to build.
  asBUILD_IN_PROGRESS | Another thread is currently building.
  asINIT_GLOBAL_VARS_FAILED | It was not possible to initialize at least one of the global variables.
  asNOT_SUPPORTED | Compiler support is disabled in the engine.
  asMODULE_IS_IN_USE | The code in the module is still being used and and cannot be removed.

Builds the script based on the previously added sections, registered types and functions. After the build is complete the script sections are removed to free memory.

Before starting the build the Build method removes any previously compiled script content, including the dynamically added content from CompileFunction and CompileGlobalVar. If the script module needs to be rebuilt all of the script sections needs to be added again.

Compiler messages are sent to the message callback function set with asIScriptEngine::SetMessageCallback. If there are no errors or warnings, no messages will be sent to the callback function.

Any global variables found in the script will be initialized by the compiler if the engine property asEP_INIT_GLOBAL_VARS_AFTER_BUILD is set. If you get the error asINIT_GLOBAL_VARS_FAILED, then it is probable that one of the global variables during the initialization is trying to access another global variable before it has been initialized.

## ◆ CompileFunction()

virtual int asIScriptModule::CompileFunction | ( | const char * | sectionName,
|  | const char * | code,
|  | int | lineOffset,
|  | asDWORD | compileFlags,

| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Parameters

  [in] | sectionName | The name of the script section
  [in] | code | The script code buffer
  [in] | lineOffset | An offset that will be added to compiler message line numbers
  [in] | compileFlags | One of asECompileFlags values
  [out] | outFunc | Optional parameter to receive the compiled function descriptor

Returns
  A negative value on error

Return values

  asINVALID_ARG | One or more arguments have invalid values.
  asINVALID_CONFIGURATION | The engine configuration is invalid.
  asBUILD_IN_PROGRESS | Another build is in progress.
  asERROR | The compilation failed.
  asNOT_SUPPORTED | Compiler support is disabled in the engine.

Use this to compile a single function. Any existing compiled code in the module can be used by the function.

The newly compiled function can be optionally added to the scope of the module where it can later be referred to by the application or used in subsequent compilations. If not added to the module the function can still be returned in the output parameter, which will allow the application to execute it and then discard it when it is no longer needed.

If the output function parameter is set, remember to release the function object when you're done with it.

## ◆ CompileGlobalVar()

virtual int asIScriptModule::CompileGlobalVar | ( | const char * | sectionName,

Return values

  asINVALID_ARG | One or more arguments have invalid values.
  asINVALID_CONFIGURATION | The engine configuration is invalid.
  asBUILD_IN_PROGRESS | Another build is in progress.
  asERROR | The compilation failed.
  asNOT_SUPPORTED | Compiler support is disabled in the engine.

Use this to add a single global variable to the scope of a module. The variable can then be referred to by the application and subsequent compilations.

The script code may contain an initialization expression, which will be executed by the compiler if the engine property asEP_INIT_GLOBAL_VARS_AFTER_BUILD is set.

Any existing compiled code in the module can be used in the initialization expression.

| pure virtual

Parameters

  [in] | index | The index of the type.

Returns
  The object type interface for the type, or null if not found.

This does not increase the reference count of the returned object.

## ◆ GetObjectTypeCount()

virtual asUINT asIScriptModule::GetObjectTypeCount | ( |  | ) | const
| pure virtual

Returns
  The number of object types declared in the module.

## ◆ GetTypedefByIndex()

## ◆ GetTypeIdByDecl()

virtual int asIScriptModule::GetTypeIdByDecl | ( | const char * | decl | ) | const
| pure virtual

Parameters

  [in] | decl | The declaration of the type.

Returns
  A negative value on error, or the type id of the type.

Return values

  asINVALID_TYPE | decl is not a valid type.

Translates a type declaration into a type id. The returned type id is valid for as long as the type is valid, so you can safely store it for later use to avoid potential overhead from calling this function each time. Just remember to update the type id, any time the type is changed within the engine, e.g. when recompiling script declared classes, or changing the engine configuration.

The type id is based on a sequence number and depends on the order in which the type ids are queried, thus is not guaranteed to always be the same for each execution of the application. The asETypeIdFlags can be used to obtain some information about the type directly from the id.

A base type yields the same type id whether the declaration is const or not, however if the const is for the subtype then the type id is different, e.g. string@ isn't the same as const string@ but string is the same as const string.

## ◆ GetTypeInfoByDecl()

virtual asITypeInfo * asIScriptModule::GetTypeInfoByDecl | ( | const char * | decl | ) | const
| pure virtual

Parameters

  [in] | decl | The declaration of the type.

Returns
  The type or null on error.

Translates a type declaration into the type info. The returned type is valid for as long as the type is valid, so you can safely store it for later use to avoid potential overhead from calling this function each time. Just remember to update the type info pointer any time the type is changed within the engine, e.g. when recompiling script declared classes, or changing the engine configuration.

## ◆ GetTypeInfoByName()

virtual asITypeInfo * asIScriptModule::GetTypeInfoByName | ( | const char * | name | ) | const
| pure virtual

Parameters

  [in] | name | The name of the type.

Returns
  The type interface for the type, or null if not found.

The search for types will be performed in the default namespace as given by SetDefaultNamespace unless the name is prefixed with a scope, using the scoping operator ::. If the scope starts with :: it will be used as the absolute scope, otherwise it will be relative to the default namespace.

## ◆ GetUserData()

virtual void * asIScriptModule::GetUserData | ( | asPWORD | type = `0` | ) | const
| pure virtual

Parameters

  [in] | type | An identifier specifying the user data to set.

| pure virtual

Parameters

  [in] | in | The input stream.
  [out] | wasDebugInfoStripped | Set to true if the byte code was saved without debug information.

Returns
  A negative value on error.

Return values

  asINVALID_ARG | The stream object wasn't specified.
  asBUILD_IN_PROGRESS | Another thread is currently building.
  asOUT_OF_MEMORY | The engine ran out of memory while loading the byte code.
  asMODULE_IS_IN_USE | The code in the module is still being used and and cannot be removed.
  asERROR | It was not possible to load the byte code.

This method is used to load pre-compiled byte code from disk or memory. The application must implement an object that inherits from asIBinaryStream to provide the necessary stream operations.

It is expected that the application performs the necessary validations to make sure the pre-compiled byte code is from a trusted source. The application should also make sure the pre-compiled byte code is compatible with the current engine configuration, i.e. that the engine has been configured in the same way as when the byte code was first compiled.

If the method returns asERROR it is either because the byte code is incorrect, e.g. corrupted due to disk failure, or it has been compiled with a different engine configuration. If possible the engine provides information about the type of error that caused the failure while loading the byte code to the message stream.

Returns
  A negative value on error.

Return values

  asNO_FUNCTION | The function is not part of the scope.

| pure virtual

Parameters

  [in] | ctx | Optional script context.

Returns
  A negative value on error.

Return values

  asERROR | The module was not compiled successfully.
  asINIT_GLOBAL_VARS_FAILED | The initialization of the global variables failed.

Resets the global variables declared in this module to their initial value. The context should be informed if the application needs to have extra control over how the initialization is done, for example for debugging, or for catching exceptions.
