Sugar2dx

Sweet syntax sugar for cocos2d-x.

This repo is a collection of C++11 syntax sugar for cocos2d-x development. Currently it does not have too much content yet. All contribution is welcomed.

Setup

We recommend that you add the Sugar2dx.h header to your prefix header. For the default template it locates in proj.ios_mac/ios/Prefix.pch

#ifdef __cplusplus
  #include "cocos2d.h"
  #include "Sugar2dx.h"
#endif

All the syntax sugar functions are in the cocos2d::sugar namespace. There is a macro for using this namespace.

USING_NS_CC_SUGAR;

Usage

create

This syntax sugar eliminates the need to write a create function for any cocos2d::Node subclass.

With this, just write the init(...) method and use the template function to create instances.

For example, with a class like this:

class MyNode: public cocos2d::Node {
  bool init(Type1* arg1, Type2* arg2);
};

You can create its instances by simply writing:

auto myNode = ::create<MyNode>(type1Arg, type2Arg);
