New Script Optimizer

[Troll-Brain]

For scripts, automatic stuff.

Or even with JNGP, to run it after map saving through the file wehack.lua

 

[Frotty]

JNGP/ grimoire needs an .exe and that takes a little bit more work but I can probably copy that from Wurst.
We will see.

 

[Luorax]

he doesn't fix it in EF and TRVE

Hmm?

I can confirm that it works for both TriggerRegisterVariableEvent and ExecuteFunc.

 

[Frotty]

Well I didn't know, and I just wrote some Changelog that stated the Nativedeclaration thing was fixed.
Doesn't rly matter tho.

With Vexorian's optimizer, if there is ExecuteFunc with I2S() for example, rather than guessing it simply does not shorten ANY function name that is "takes nothing returns nothing".

JassHelper auto-concatenates constant strings (provided you are not running in debug_mode).

So the optimizer problem is resolved. It works 100%.

The thing is Ralle will implement a JASS parser onto the server so you can compile from anywhere, if we come up with a solution which does not require Windows-only libraries. So that might be a motivation for Frotty's compiler.

 

[Frotty]

I am not guessing, if a function name contains the constant stringvar inside the EF call at the same position as in the EF call It gets shortened...afaik. I don't even remmeber that much, have to test it again some time.
The auto-concatenation isn't hard to do, but I honestly don't see where a user would write "a" + "b" instead of "ab

Well, yes. It can be run anywhere since it's java and I don't use OS specific libraries.

Well, it will just show up some random
"Cannot access registry" blah blah blah blah blah and some sort of errors when I try to optimize something

 

[Frotty]

blah blah blah helps very much.
Do you even have Java installed?
Make a Screenshot or so, I tested it on several systems and had a few testers, so I also need some system spec.

 

[jim7777]

here's some screenshots



yeah i have Java installed

running on windows 7 ultimate

the second error appears after that registry error..
Map is an old version of Mag's ASS

 

[Frotty]

Where did you run it? Maybe you don't have permission in that folder.

 

[jim7777]

Just desktop o.o
Tried putting WinMPQ in Run as Administrator mode but meh.. it wouldn't show the errors but the Finished! message wouldn't show meaning, it stops lol

 

[Frotty]

Where does it stop
Oh you need the VBRuntime package installed for winmpq

That kinda sucks, I guess I'll use Ladik's instead.

On Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 64 bits with OpenJdk Java 6 Runtime :

- I'm unable to choice the option Remove Comments, it's in light grey and already setted.
- The menu doesn't work except the help (i can choice file open, optimize, but that does nothing, file exit does work though).

If i optimize a map it just copy it (the copy has the same MD5, SHA-1 hash.)
But i suppose in the current version optimize a map under an OS different to Windows is not supported (because of winmpq).
But optimizing a script should work, and i'm unable to do it.

 

[Frotty]

Remove Comments can't be unchosen.
maps probably don't work as of winmpq.
You should be able to optimize a script, what doesnt work?

 

[Troll-Brain]

I can select a file, but nothing happens when i try to optimize it through the menu.
And according to the displayed text, the "green" button is for map, not for scripts, anyway when i press it, it displays "is.j4" in the bar, and nothing more happens.

I forgot that linux uses other filenameseperators. I'll fix this and test soon.
