03/09/2023, 9:16 PMi think asset plugin is the way to go here... you can almost do it now:<asset-plugin id="assetNamePlugin" removeExtension="true" prefix="png" if="heaps" /> - b
bright-gpu-74537
03/09/2023, 9:17 PMshould be suffix, but that isnt supported (yet) - p

03/09/2023, 9:25 PMcan I use "static inline var" in xml? Im getting error that may be unrelated icon="assets/ciEvidence.${Main.ext}" - p
purple-businessperson-14467
03/09/2023, 9:25 PMI'm using @xml(' - b
bright-gpu-74537
03/09/2023, 9:26 PMim not sure that is going to work... the data between icon="" isnt "pasted" into the haxe source "as is"... at least i dont think it is - p
purple-businessperson-14467
03/09/2023, 9:26 PMright, ok - p
purple-businessperson-14467
03/09/2023, 9:27 PMI thought maybe because ' in xml(' it might. Ok, it can wait - b

bright-gpu-74537
03/09/2023, 9:28 PMdunno why its trying to create, or lookup, a field - b
bright-gpu-74537
03/09/2023, 9:28 PMbut either way, its not "just a string" - p
purple-businessperson-14467
03/09/2023, 9:28 PMright - b
bright-gpu-74537
03/09/2023, 9:29 PMi do feel like though that this should be allowed / possible... its kinda nice (and feels normal)... ill check it out - b

03/09/2023, 9:30 PM(its the "." that screws up that example... use "_" and you get a different error) - b
bright-gpu-74537
03/09/2023, 9:31 PM... hang on... isnt this all just compile time eval stuff, which haxeui fully supports... could be a simple as a bug - b
