Virtual AST Node Properties - SyntaxEditor for WPF Forum

Posted 12 years ago by Ian Davis

When generating the AST node classes from the language designer, is it possible to generate the node properties as virtual?

For example:

    public partial class Expression : AstNodeBase {
        
        private DataType computedTypeValue;
        
        public override Int32 Id {
            get {
                return FormulaAstNodeId.Expression;
            }
        }

        public DataType ComputedType {
            get {
                return this.computedTypeValue;
            }
            set {
                this.computedTypeValue = value;
            }
        }
    }

Becomes

    public partial class Expression : AstNodeBase {
        
        private DataType computedTypeValue;
        
        public override Int32 Id {
            get {
                return FormulaAstNodeId.Expression;
            }
        }

        public virtual DataType ComputedType {
            get {
                return this.computedTypeValue;
            }
            set {
                this.computedTypeValue = value;
            }
        }
    }

Hi Ian,

Sorry we don't have any options for that. But since the generated classes are all partial classes, you could easily extend them with your own virtual properties.
