First iteration for the new plugin system #211

Closed Dovyski closed 10 years ago

Dovyski commented 10 years ago

This is pull request 1 of 3 regarding the new plugin system. Here's what I've done so far:

Implemented FlxSignal and FlxG.signals. There are a couple signals already working (e.g. preUpdate);
Refactored TimeManager and DebugPathDisplay to use the new plugin architecture;
Created a new interface (FlxPlugin) to define the structure of any plugin;

What is missing (next tasks):

Some docs;
Refactor the record functionality to make it a plugin (_already working on it_).

Please give feedback about the code and the architecture. I've tried to mimic HaxeFlixel API/names/packages when possible. After this pull request gets merged, I will start working on the record plugin.

Is this pull request still in progress, or are you still wanting to add any more commits to it before it is merged?

Sorry I haven't had a chance to have a good luck at your code yet or test it out for myself, but since you have tested it in the Sandbox, when you feel it is at a stable state and you are finished with it, you are welcome to merge it.

I've started working on the record functionality, which I was planning to do after the pull request got merged. I think I will just add the comments/docs I left behind and merge it.

The record functionality will be broken, but at least the new plugin architecture will be ready to be used by everyone on dev.

I'm done adding commits to this :smile:

The new plugin architecture is stable and ready to be used. I've tested it and it's good to go (excluding FlxReplay, which is broken and will be fixed in another pull request). I will merge this at the end of the day.
