Description

We export a collection of functions that can be used to design custom methods for .cstr_construct() or custom constructors for a given method.

• .cstr_new_class() : Open template to support a new class

• .cstr_new_constructor() : Open template to implement a new constructor

• .cstr_construct() : Low level generic for object construction code generation

• .cstr_repair_attributes()' : Helper to repair attributes of objects

• .cstr_options() : Define and check options to pass to custom constructors

• .cstr_apply() : Build recursively the arguments passed to your constructor

• .cstr_wrap() : Wrap argument code in function code (rarely needed)

• .cstr_pipe() : Pipe a call to another (rarely needed)

• .cstr_combine_errors() : helper function report several errors at once when relevant
