Unigine::UlonNode Class

Header:

#include <UnigineUlon.h>

This class is used to represent a ULON node.

Each ULON node has a type, a name, and a value. It can also have child ULON nodes and a parent node, thus forming a hierarchy.

A node is declared as follows:

Source code

NodeType node_name = node_value

ULON nodes can be of the following types:

Boolean
Node node = true
Integer number
Node node = 1234
Floating-point number
Node node = 3.1459
String
- Quoted string with standard escape characters:
  Node node = "word word"
- Bare word, beginning with a lower case letter, containing only letters, digits, and underscores "_":
  Node node = word1_word2
- Heredoc string enclosed in #{ ... #} (used for code fragments):
  Node node = #{C++ C# USC HLSL GLSL USSL#}
Array containing a finite number of integer, float, and string elements
Node node = [100, 0.2, str str "str str str", #{vec4 asd = vec4_zero;#}] This array has the following 6 elements:
- 100
- 0.2
- str
- str
- str str str
- vec4 asd = vec4_zero;

Conditions#

For each node a condition can be specified, if the condition fails the ULON node with all its children is ignored. Thus you can dynamically build the hierarchy of ULON nodes with a great degree of flexibility.

Notice

Conditions are not parsed and executed automatically, processing of conditions is the responsibility of the user of the ULON format (e.g. in case of materials UnigineScript and UUSL are used).

Conditions are specified after the node's name, starting with the if keyword, the condition itself is enclosed in brackets [ ... ].

Condition of the parent node is added to the condition of the child: (parent_conditon) && (child_conditon)

Example:

Source code

Node parent if[var == 10 || var == 5]
{
    Node child_0  if[var == 3]
    Node child_1  if[var == 4]
    {
        Node child_2 if[var != 11]
        Node child_3 if[var != 25]
	}
}

The resulting conditions for each node are as follows:

parent condition: (var1 == 10 || var1 == 5)
child_0 condition: (var1 == 10 || var1 == 5) && (var2 == 3)
child_1 condition: (var1 == 10 || var1 == 5) && (var2 == 4)
child_2 condition: (var1 == 10 || var1 == 5) && (var2 == 4) && (var3 != 11)
child_3 condition: (var1 == 10 || var1 == 5) && (var2 == 4) && (var3 != 25)
