vim9script userdef

[N i c o l a s]

Hi,

In vim9script, is it possible to write the equivalent of this legacy vimscript code :

let defdict[type] = g:tagbar_type_{type}

For instant it results to E488: Trailing characters: {ftype}

Thank you

Nicolas

hello,

> let defdict[type] = g:tagbar_type_{type}

is this ok for you?

let type ="grep"
exec $"let defdict[type] = g:gitgutter_{type}"

regards

Hi Marc, 

• Not it is not OK. E488 when i try to port autoload/tagbar.vim lin386

https://github.com/preservim/tagbar/blob/master/autoload/tagbar.vim

function! s:LoadUserTypeDefs(...) abort
     if a:0 > 0
         let type = a:1
 
         let defdict = {}

         let defdict[type] = g:tagbar_type_{type}

Port in vim9script, do i have to pass by exécutable command as you de scribe it ? 

Thank you Marc

Maybe you could try prefixing the command with 'legacy', but I think you might have better success with just replacing g:tagbar_type_{type} flavour variables with just a dict called g:tagbar_type and then 'type' could just be a key: g:tagbar_type[type], much like you have with defdict on that same line. I haven't looked at the actual source, so I can't speak to whether this will cause other problems, but this is something I've had success with in my own scripts.

Thank you Salman, your advise seems to match what I need. In Progress... :)

Curly-brace names are not supported in Vim9. This is documented in both
:help vim9-differences
and
:help curly-brace-names

Thank you Mike. That's why i'm trying to apply what Salman said

'' 
just a dict called g:tagbar_type and then 'type' could just be a key '' 

Thank you
