The lib should be stateless

kikito commented 10 years ago

Right now the library holds a lot of state in vars. I don't like that.

local loader = require 'love-loader'

local loader1 = loader.newLoader(finishedCallback, loadedCallback)

loader1:newImage(  images, 'rabbit', 'path/to/rabbit.png')
loader1:newSource( sounds, 'iiiik',  'path/to/iiik.ogg')
loader1:newSource( sounds, 'music',  'path/to/music.ogg', 'stream')

This fixes two things:

State is moved outside of the library and into the user's env (where it should be INMHO)
You can have several loaders (for example one loader per level)
It's possible that we even don't need 'start' if we do it right.

We can probably use a single resource-loading thread for all the extra loaders (as opposed to one per loader); but we shall see.

I have no time to dedicate to this project so I have decided to declare it unmaintained and close all open issues.

I think my reopening of this was more aspirational than anything. Otherwise there would be a corresponding PR. But it's been many years so your guess is as good as mine at this point.
