I use a lot value objects (VO) in Javascript storing JSON content and it is quite boring to create a new VO. So i did a factory to automate the process.
Create a new VO:
var TestVO = AMF.voFactory([
['name', {type: 'string'}],
['age', {type: 'int'}],
['height', {type: 'float'}],
['friends', {type: 'array', defaultValue: null, addName: 'friend'}],
'x',
['y', {}]
]);
Create a new instance on t:
var t = new TestVO();
Set values:
t.setName('My Name');
t.setAge(28);
t.setHeight(1.74);
t.setFriends(['Friend A', 'Friend B']);
t.addFriend('Friend C');
t.setX('value X');
t.setY('value Y');
Get values:
t.getName() - My Name
t.getAge() - 28
t.getHeight() - 1.74
t.getFriends() - Friend A,Friend B,Friend C
t.getX() - value X
t.getY() - value Y
t.toString() -
name: My Name,
age: 28,
height: 1.74,
friends: [Friend A, Friend B, Friend C],
x: value X,
y: value Y
t.serialize() - name=My%20Name&age=28&height=1.74& friends=Friend%20A%2CFriend%20B%2CFriend%20C& x=value%20X&y=value%20Y
Using parse() method (JSON notation):
var v = {'name': 'My New Name', 'age': 29, 'height': 1,76, 'friends': ['Friend D', 'Friend E'], 'x': 'value X2', 'y': 'value Y2'};
t.parse(v);
Get new values:
t.getName() - My New Name
t.getAge() - 29
t.getHeight() - 1.76
t.getFriends() - Friend D,Friend E
t.getX() - value X2
t.getY() - value Y2
t.toString() -
name: My Novo Name,
age: 29,
height: 1.76,
friends: [Friend D, Friend E],
x: value X2,
y: value Y2
t.serialize() - name=My%20Novo%20Name&age=29&height=1.76& friends=Friend%20D%2CFriend%20E& x=value%20X2&y=value%20Y2
The methods parse(), toString() and serialize() are created as default, but you can reewrite anyone as you need.
TestVO.prototype.parse = function() { ... };
TestVO.prototype.toString = function() { ... };
TestVO.prototype.serialize = function() { ... };
