List Class in packages

[Jean-Baptiste Richardet]

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if there was a solution to list all the class in a class path.

Practical case, I'm starting to write unit tests and I would like to add test cases in my runner dynamically. Is there a macro or something that's capable of that ?

Thank you,

Jb Richardet

Hi

My compiletime helper library can pull this off, though there may be a more direct way also:

CompileTime.importPackage("my.package");


for ( cls in CompileTime.getAllClasses("my.package") ) {
   var inst = Type.createInstance( cls, [] );
}

Thank you Jason, that's exactly what I was looking for!

But I just tested it with:

var runner = new Runner();
CompileTime.importPackage("grar.parser");

for ( cls in CompileTime.getAllClasses("grar.parser") ) {
  runner.addCase(Type.createInstance( cls, [] ));
}      

where "grar.parser" is where my test classes are, I've got the good cp set in my HXML file, but I've got this error:
Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert []@114f9c151 to List

    at CompileTimeClassList$/get()
    at RunTest$/main()
    at boot_2fbc/init()
    at flash::Boot/start()
    at boot_2fbc()

Where does this come from ?

Oh, looks like that code might have broken since I've last used it like that.

I'll take a look now...

Or I had only ever run tests on neko, which let me get away with a bad cast.

I think I've fixed it now and updated the haxelib, would you like to try again?

[Jean-Baptiste Richardet]

Yep, that works fine now! Great job and thanks again for saving me a lot of work :)
