power<\/strong><\/em> will be very evident.<\/p>\n Technically speaking directives allow you to define data and entry points for multi-runtime software in any execution order without repeating code using one language.<\/p>\n
Why that’s useful comes down to convenience. \u00a0It’s an extremely convenient way to write complicated\u00a0software for the web such as web games.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n \/\/ in one file...
\n _.server()
\n _.remote(\"do_something\",function(arg1,arg2){
\n trace(\"a client called this function with arg1 =\" + arg1 + \" and arg2 = \" + arg2 )
\n })<\/p>\n _.client()
\n _.ready(function(){
\n send(\"do_something\", 0, 0 )
\n })<\/code><\/p>\n
This doesn’t give it justice at all. \u00a0 Like I say, some tutorials will clear up how powerful this concept really is in the near future.<\/p>\n
Super Flow Prototype 3<\/h3>\n
Althought I’m developing a complete SDK<\/strong> <\/em>(software development kit), \u00a0complete a powerful IDE<\/strong> <\/em>(integrated development environment), \u00a0I’ll be using Super Flow Prototype 3<\/strong><\/em> this Ludum Dare.<\/p>\n This was the first solid prototype that really took advantage of directives. \u00a0It resembles very closely the final design of the API.<\/p>\n
