Question

Compiler Code Generation API

I would like to ask if you guys could make a Compiler Code Generation API.  This would allow developers who would like to fine-tune details you guys probably don't have time to do, for projects we think its important on.  Specifically with [Bindable] and {} code generation.

I would like to be able, and many others I'm sure, to turn Binding on/off (conditional binding), and add more complicated expressions, but that's currently impossible, unless I rewrote the core UIComponent and everything.  Or unless I had access to the generated code through a nice API which shouldn't take you guys long at all: you already are generating lots of code and have templates for it, I would just like to ask for easy access to those templates.

Please let me know what you think.  Thanks a lot for your time.

Lance

It's something we've thought about but it's not a high enough priority right now. Certainly a feature that folks could think about implementing on their own and contributing back though. It tends to be more complicated than you'd think though

Good to know .  I'll try getting to know the compiler over these next few weeks and see what I can do.

Thanks Matt,

Lance
