Box2D support about h5

[theolivenbaum]

Hi @thomz12, Yeah that's the approach I used before, just decompile with any tool and replace Retyped with H5.core I've two packages in my todo list for a while, let's see if I manage to do the three over this weekend. Cheers, Rafael

Perfect! If you wanna submit the code as a PR I can publish it as a Nuget package as well

To be honest my personal experience with Retyped isn't very good - for all the libraries we use, we just ended up writing our own wrapper classes - much easy to get a consistency experience than the autogenerated one from the typescript definition files used by Retyped. I'm not familiar with Box2D, but if their API is not too crazy might be worth giving it a try.

It's usually as simple as writing a C# method and directly call the javascript code with something like this:

public class MyLib
{ 
    public int DoSomething(string par1, int par2)
    {
        return Script.Write<int>("myLib.doSomething({0}, {1}", par1, par2);
    }
}

The trick is that the compiler will emit directly the parameter variables in the final javascript, so that becomes:

return myLib.doSomething(par1, par2);

If you need more complex data types, you can create lightweight classes using the [ObjectLiteral] attribute. These classes are compiled to plain javascript objects without any of the C# extra code.

If you can that would be great!

did that mistake in the past too 😄

Just merged the code, thanks for contributing!

For future reference, I'm leaving these two regexs that I used for cleaning the decompiled code:

• Replace \s+{[\n\r]\s+get[\n\r]\s+{(.|[\s\n\r])*?}[\n\r]\s+set[\n\r]\s+{(.|[\s\n\r])*?}\s+} with { get; set; }
• Replace \s+private .*?__BackingField;\r\n with

The final package should be published on nuget soon!

Thanks for the info! I had I look just now and was able to decompile and get it to compile with my project.
Had a quick test that still didn't quite work, but I'll figure that out tomorrow. :)

So unfortunatly the original package used for Retpyed.box2d is used just for node applications. (I failed to notice that before)
I can convert it so it can be loaded in a browser, but I can't get the retyped package to work with that. (in the browser)

Do you have any ideas?

[theolivenbaum]

Obviously, use static methods if it's a static library, or create an instance of the library and store it locally in the wrapper class if needed

Thanks again for the tips!

Would you like to make a nuget package for it? (p2) If you do, I'll open a PR tomorrow.

Cool! I wanted to push a new branch, but it it looks like I'm not allowed to.

I think you've to fork first, push to your fork and then open a PR
