Members
void engine.system.set(string function, Variable value)
Set a variable in a system script (this function can be called directly from any other script).Arguments
- string function - Variable name.
- Variable value - Value of the variable.
Variable engine.system.get(string function)
Returns a variable from the system script. Instances of user-defined classes cannot be requested in such a manner.Arguments
- string function - Variable name with a namespace, if needed.
Return value
Requested instance.int engine.system.isFunction(string name, int num_args)
Returns a value indicating if the given function with the specified number of arguments exists in the system script.Arguments
- string name - Function name.
- int num_args - Number of function arguments.
Return value
1 if the function exists; otherwise, 0.int engine.system.isVariable(string name)
Returns a value indicating if the given variable exists in the system script.Arguments
- string name - Variable name.
Return value
1 if the variable exists; otherwise, 0.Variable engine.system.call(Variable function)
Executes a function of the system script from an external script. The function should not take any arguments.Arguments
- Variable function - Name of the function to execute.
Return value
Value returned by the function.Variable engine.system.call(Variable function, Variable arg0)
Executes a function of the system script from an external script. The function should take one argument.Arguments
- Variable function - Name of the function to execute.
- Variable arg0 - Argument of the function.
Return value
Value returned by the function.Variable engine.system.call(Variable function, Variable arg0, Variable arg1)
Executes a function of the system script from an external script. The function should take two arguments.Arguments
- Variable function - Name of the function to execute.
- Variable arg0 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg1 - Argument of the function.
Return value
Value returned by the function.Variable engine.system.call(Variable function, Variable arg0, Variable arg1, Variable arg2)
Executes a function of the system script from an external script. The function should take three arguments.Arguments
- Variable function - Name of the function to execute.
- Variable arg0 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg1 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg2 - Argument of the function.
Return value
Value returned by the function.Variable engine.system.call(Variable function, Variable arg0, Variable arg1, Variable arg2, Variable arg3)
Executes a function of the system script from an external script. The function should take four arguments.Arguments
- Variable function - Name of the function to execute.
- Variable arg0 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg1 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg2 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg3 - Argument of the function.
Return value
Value returned by the function.Variable engine.system.call(Variable function, Variable arg0, Variable arg1, Variable arg2, Variable arg3, Variable arg4)
Executes a function of the system script from an external script. The function should take five arguments.Arguments
- Variable function - Name of the function to execute.
- Variable arg0 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg1 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg2 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg3 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg4 - Argument of the function.
Return value
Value returned by the function.Variable engine.system.call(Variable function, Variable arg0, Variable arg1, Variable arg2, Variable arg3, Variable arg4, Variable arg5)
Executes a function of the system script from an external script. The function should take six arguments.Arguments
- Variable function - Name of the function to execute.
- Variable arg0 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg1 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg2 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg3 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg4 - Argument of the function.
- Variable arg5 - Argument of the function.
Return value
Value returned by the function.Variable engine.system.call(Variable function, int id = [])
Executes a function of the system script from an external script. The function takes an array of arguments (up to 8 arguments are supported).Arguments
- Variable function - Name of the function to execute.
- int id - Array of up to 8 arguments.
Return value
Value returned by the function.Last update: 2017-12-21
