Is there a way to write a macro that builds classes with a certain @:meta?

[Joshua Granick]

Hi,

I know that there is a way to build out types using @:autoBuild and search
for a specific @:meta tag, but is there a way to do the reverse?

For example:


@:embed("file.dat") class File extends Bytes {}


--macro Embed.allFiles()


...and allow the macro to discover this (incomplete) type, and build it
out?

Thank you

I think you can do that with Compiler.addGlobalMetadata, adding a @:build macro to all classes, and then check for `@:embed` meta in that build macro, but I'm not sure if it worth the overhead of running this macro for all types in your compilation.
