Unity 3D: Automatic Event Connections a’la Qt

You will find a new script in my UnityAssets repository at GitHub. It is called AutoConnector.cs and serves the same purpose as Qt’s auto-connection mechanism for signals and slots. You will find a usage example below. Hope it makes your life easier 🙂

This is probably the last entry on the blog this year so I’ll take this opportunity to wish you all Merry Christmas and fruitful programming in the New Year 2017!

public class AutoConnectTest : MonoBehaviour {

	class Ui {
		public GameObject MySlider;
	};

	Ui ui = new Ui();

	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () {
		AutoConnector.autoFind(ui);
		AutoConnector.autoConnect (this);
	}
	
	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () {
	
	}

	void on_MySlider_ValueChanged(float f) {
		Debug.Log (string.Format ("Current value is {0}", f));
	}

	void on_MyButton_Click() {
		Debug.Log ("Button clicked!");
		ui.MySlider.SetActive (!ui.MySlider.activeSelf);
	}

	void on_MyInputField_EndEdit(string s) {
		Debug.Log (string.Format ("Ended editing input field, value: {0}", s));
	}
}
