jazz in gui? :weekani:

[N8-11_GER]

hi guys i just wanna ask if it will be possible to convert jazz in gui or maybe only partial that maybe 50% in gui rest in jazz what isnt possible to convert maybe there is an tool thx for onfi

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

No,there isn't such a way or tool to convert JASS to GUI.

 

[N8-11_GER]

then create one plz :'(

 

[Parrothead]

then create one plz :'(

Much harder done then said. Some things in jass are unable to be replicated in GUI.

I'm sure it's possible...
I just don't see why anyone would spend (way too much) time on it.

 

[HappyTauren]

Rofl eleandor that is NOT POSSIBILE by ANY MEANS. Its like trying to convert metal into plastic.

 

[Unscrewed_Magic]

I guess if the JASS was orginaly GUI and had zero custom JASS in it...
You could convert bits a pieces...
Still, anyone who can make a program that converts JASS to GUI has spent the time to learn JASS and will not have a reason to make a program to convert JASS to GUI. JASS is simply better in almost every way other than being user friendly.

Why couldn't you create a program that recognise a certain structure (such as the structure of a for loop) and convert it into the gui for loop? Yes you can. It's just not going to be easy to make the thing flexible, and probably nearly insane to make a "deconverter" work properly in the first place.

If you can convert plastic in metal, you can convert metal into plastic as well.
Sure, I understand your point of view and you can't possibly convert a jass trigger in 100% gui (unless perhaps if the trigger was originally made in gui), but that's not what he asked. He asked if it's possible to reproduce certain jass parts into gui, and yes, theoretically it is.

But practically, nobody is going to consider doing it, especially because it would probably be easier just to teach you jass.

A JASS to GUI convert is easy, only problem is it will still be in JASS but just use custom script GUI actions.

JASS is far superior to GUI in every way, thus converting propper well coded JASS to GUI is impossiable unless like I said, it is just custom script actions with the very same JASS which has no advantages over pure JASS anyway.

Its like converting a real into an integer, it just can not happen unless data loss occures, but JASS to GUI is a lot more complicated.

Well, I actually believe a good Jasser and a GUI Triger maker could work together to convert parts of the JASS script to GUI together, but not making a tool as this would take ages to complete and would need some more than simple Jass/Gui skills to complete. I don't think a system can be created, but I hope one (even not complete) will come up sooner or later!

convert this
loop
exitwhen someoneisdead
endloop

And close this thread.

People who don't know jass don't know what they are talking about '\=,=/'

There is NO WAI to convert jass into GUI, unless you want it in custom scripts, which is completely pointless.

Meh, just create custom editor like WEU with additional lists for every jass function. Proplem solved. It is possible, but no one should spend time doing it.

EDIT: Too tired, didn't remember few things that make this a LOT harder. Nvm me.

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

By the way, its JASS* not jazz....

well you forgot this
You would have to make every single statement, all with if,then,endif and shit like that,which is by no means possibile. Jass doesnt work like gui nor does gui work like jass. In jass, in one "GUI" trigger you can make numerous jass triggers, functions and global declarations, structs, methods and things that come with newgen.

 

[Earth-Fury]

its easy to go from GUI -> JASS -> GUI. Going from JASS not written by the GUI to GUI is #1: Stupid, #2: Hard, #3: In a lot of cases, completely impossible. There have been utilities which can rebuild GUI data from JASS code written by the GUI. (I'm not going to be linking to them, of course.)

if you do not understand why it is completely impossible, then you need to learn a hell of a lot more about programing before you can hope to understand it.

loop
exitwhen <someone is dead>
call blabla
endloop

convert this
