Easy work with Structures with 'SubStructure' and 'Insert...

[Leonhard]

With the command 'InsertStructure' you can insert a structure in a structure:

Code: Select all

Structure Struc1
  bVar1.b
  lVar2.l
  sVar3.s
EndStructure

Structure Struc2
  sName.s
  
  InsertStructure Struc1
EndStructure

the same as

Code: Select all

Structure Struc1
  bVar1.b
  lVar2.l
  sVar3.s
EndStructure

Structure Struc2
  sName.s
  
  bVar1.b
  lVar2.l
  sVar3.s
EndStructure

With 'SubStructure' you can mace a Structure in a Structure:

Code: Select all

Structure Struc
  sValue.s
  
  SubStructure SubName
    lVar.l
  EndSubStructure
EndStructure

the same as

Code: Select all

Structure _Struc_SubName
  lVar.l
EndStructure

Structure Struc
  sValue.s
  
  SubName._Struc_SubName
EndStructure

Something similar to 'InsertStructure' can be allready done with the 'Extends" keyword.

Yes, but it is only on the front on the Structure.

Why would you need these new commands?

[Leonhard]

I need this commands why I use this crabwise.

I wrote this in many programms crabwise and I would wrote this faster.

So PureBasic have complex macros, I can wrote this.
