Plastic is a support library that aids Fantom-Factory in the development of other libraries, frameworks and applications. Though you are welcome to use it, you may find features are missing and the documentation incomplete.
Plastic is a library for dynamically generating and compiling Fantom code.
Plastic is the cornerstone of IoC proxied services and Embedded Fantom (efan) templates.
Install Plastic with the Fantom Pod Manager ( FPM ):
C:\> fpm install afPlastic
Or install Plastic with fanr:
C:\> fanr install -r http://eggbox.fantomfactory.org/fanr/ afPlastic
To use in a Fantom project, add a dependency to build.fan:
depends = ["sys 1.0", ..., "afPlastic 1.1"]
Full API & fandocs are available on the Eggbox - the Fantom Pod Repository.
model := PlasticClassModel("MyClass", true)

//
// sys::Str greet(Str name) {
// "Hello ${name}!"
// }

myType := PlasticCompiler().compileModel(model)
myType.make->greet("Mum")
// --> Hello Mum!
