[question] Declare methods in scripts about expressionevaluator

[codingseb]

Also take note that variables declared in a lambda are scoped (only available) in the lambda block.
But for now variables declared in other types of blocks are not scoped to their block.

var x = 1;

var myMethod = () => 
{
    var a = x + 1;
};

myMethod();

// x will be available here but not a.

But

var x = 1;

if(x == 1)
{
    var a = x+1;
}

// both x and a will be available here.

It's in my todo list to scope variables in each blocks to behave more like in C# but in current version (1.4.18.0) it's not done.

It's not directly possible with the standard syntax of a method for now. But it's possible to declare some multiline lambda like function. I know it's not well documented.
But you can write something like :

var myMethod = (a) => 
{
    //Do something with a
};

myMethod(1);

I will add some docs about this.

Thanks for the reply, multiline lambda will do for now. For the sake of backwards compatibility it would be nice to have another setting to toggle this.

If possible it would be fine to leave this open for now, for other newcomers around, I guess this would be a frequent question.

Yes good idea. I will add an option for this.

Yes I leave this open.

I added a small documentation about using lambda for method simulation here

I always keep this issue open

Great job, thanks!
