I could.. but sometimes I reuse a variable within a block of code, so its not always viable to simply remove the declaration. eg. You will notice I've used the variable "m" twice here, on both occasions its a single type that represents a single material, so logically it makes sense. I could code around it with different variable names but isn't this coding around backwards compatibility?
Actually looking at my game code, I do this quite a lot unfortunately.
Gernot my opinion is this, this is just a "quality of life" improvement, my opinion is not to spend too much time on it if its causing you grief. By this stage I think every one had gotten used to self. anyways!
Code: (glbasic) [Select]
FUNCTION ReadFile: filename$
LOCAL f%,l$
LOCAL n%,t$[]
LOCAL i%
LOCAL m AS TMaterial
self.Destroy()
self.SetUp()
f%=GENFILE()
OPENFILE(f%, filename$, TRUE)
//DEBUG "Start read TMaterials.ReadFile("+filename$+") file >\n"
REPEAT
READLINE f%, l$
n%=SPLITSTR(l$,t$[]," ")
IF LEN(t$[])=0 THEN CONTINUE
SELECT t$[0]
CASE "newmtl"
DIMPUSH self.m[], m
self.m[-1].name$=t$[1]
CASE "Kd"
self.m[-1].red# = t$[1]; self.m[-1].green# = t$[2]; self.m[-1].blue# = t$[3]
CASE "Tr"
self.m[-1].alpha# = t$[1]
CASE "Ns"
self.m[-1].size# = t$[1]
CASE "#"
DEFAULT
ENDSELECT
UNTIL ENDOFFILE(f%)
FOREACH m IN self.m[]
m.combined% = ASL((m.alpha#)*255,24)+ASL(m.blue#*255,16)+ASL(m.green#*255,8) + m.red#*255
NEXT
//DEBUG "< End read material file\n"
CLOSEFILE f%
ENDFUNCTION
