Daedalus Scripts

Daedalus is the domain-specific compiled scripting language used by the ZenGin. Currently, ZenKit supports loading and executing compiled scripts using the zenkit::DaedalusScript API.

Loading Daedalus Scripts

CC++C#JavaPython

Example

#include <zenkit-capi/DaedalusScript.h>
#include <zenkit-capi/Vfs.h>

int main(int, const char** argv) {
    // Load from a file on disk:
    ZkDaedalusScript* script = ZkDaedalusScript_loadPath("MENU.DAT");
    ZkDaedalusScript_del(script);

    // ... or from a VFS:
    ZkVfs* vfs = ZkVfs_new();
    ZkVfs_mountHost(vfs, "_work/", "/", ZkVfsOverwriteBehavior_OLDER);
    script = ZkDaedalusScript_loadVfs(vfs, "MENU.DAT");
    ZkDaedalusScript_del(csl);
    ZkVfs_del(vfs);

    return 0;
}

Example

#include <zenkit/DaedalusScript.hh>
#include <zenkit/Stream.hh>
#include <zenkit/Vfs.hh>

int main(int, char const** argv) {
    zenkit::DaedalusScript script {};

    auto r = zenkit::Read::from("MENU.DAT");
    script.load(r.get());

    // ... or from a VFS
    zenkit::Vfs vfs;
    vfs.mount_host("_work/", "/", zenkit::VfsOverwriteBehavior::OLDER);

    r = vfs->find("MENU.DAT")->open_read();
    script.load(r.get());

    return 0;
}

Example

using ZenKit;

// Load from a file on disk:
var script = new DaedalusScript("MENU.DAT");

// ... or from a VFS:
var vfs = new Vfs();
vfs.Mount("_work/", "/", VfsOverwriteBehavior.Older);
script = new DaedalusScript(vfs, "MENU.DAT");

Java

import dev.gothickit.zenkit.daedalus.DaedalusScript;
import dev.gothickit.zenkit.vfs.Vfs;
import dev.gothickit.zenkit.vfs.VfsOverwriteBehavior;

// Load from a file on disk:
var script = new DaedalusScript("MENU.DAT");

// ... or from a VFS:
var vfs = new Vfs();
vfs.mount("_work/", "/", VfsOverwriteBehavior.Older);
script = new DaedalusScript(vfs, "MENU.DAT");

Example

from zenkit import Vfs, VfsOverwriteBehavior, DaedalusScript

# Load from a file on disk:
script = DaedalusScript.load("MENU.DAT")

# ... or from a VFS:
vfs = Vfs()
vfs.mount_path("_work/", "/", clobber=VfsOverwriteBehavior.OLDER)
script = DaedalusScript.load(vfs.find("MENU.DAT"))
