Re: [PATCH] Math expression support for pad editor.

 

Hi Russell,

the class can handle variables in two ways:
NumericEvaluator eval;
1. Assignment within expressions: eval.process("x=1; y=5");
2. Assignment from c++ code: eval.setVar("posx", -3.4);

So it would be up to the dialog to add a variable to an eval object  within
a "focus lost" or "value changed" event.
In case of (2) the variable "posx" could be used in following expressions.
But this would require a shared eval object for all text boxes. Like one
object for each dialog.

 - Michael
