TBGL_PeriodicFunctionChange

[Michael Clease]

I was thinking it would be good to be able to change the Function that is called during execution.

I cant do that without scrapping it and setting it up again from scratch

thanks

Thanks Mike,

I will have a look at it.

Is the following syntax ok for you?:

TBGL_ChangePeriodicFunction( hWnd, FunctionName )

I know the hWnd parameter might seem irrelevant for the moment, but what if TBGL will support multiple windows in the future

Thats sounds good to me.

One suggestion which could chaos is to change the function names to all start with Periodic

TBGL_PeriodicChangeFunction
TBGL_PeriodicBindFunction
TBGL_PeriodicProcessFunction
TBGL_PeriodicUnBindFunction

This would group all commands together making it easier to find all related commands.

Mike

oops spelling error function without the first "n" becomes quite rude

[Petr Schreiber]

That sounds good, and the latest TBGL commands follow this pattern (TBGL_Entity...).

I think I have used the old syntax in some tutorials already, but nothing is simpler than adding alias inside module definition. I will do that.
The syntax TBGL_Periodic... will be better for case once thinAir will have code completion, it will quickly filter out the rest.

I will update the docs and upload new DLL for testing in few minutes.
