Extra Attributes

Quantum Console comes with extra, non essential attributes designed to make your life using QC easier.

[CommandPrefix]

By using the [CommandPrefix] attribute on a class, you can easily add an attribute to all of the commands declared inside of it.

using QFSW.QC;

[CommandPrefix("test.")]
public static class MyClass
{
    [Command("foo1")]
    private static void Foo1() { }
    
    [Command("foo2")]
    private static void Foo2() { }
}

This example code would produce 2 commands, test.foo1 and test.foo2. This can be very useful for grouping together commands.

If no name is supplied, then just like [Command], it can use the caller name.

using QFSW.QC;

[CommandPrefix]
public static class MyClass
{
    [Command]
    private static void Foo1() { }
    
    [Command]
    private static void Foo2() { }
}

This will yield the commands MyClassFoo1 and MyClassFoo2.

The attribute also works with nested classes, and with multiple attributes on the same class.

using QFSW.QC;

[CommandPrefix("test1.")]
[CommandPrefix("test2.")]
public static class MyClass
{
    [CommandPrefix("a.")]
    private static class MyClass1
    {
        [Command("foo")]
        private static void Foo() { }
    }
    
    [CommandPrefix("b.")]
    private static class MyClass2
    {
        [Command("foo")]
        private static void Foo() { }
    }
}

This will yield the commands test1.test2.a.foo and test1.test2.b.foo

Command prefixes can also be applied to entire assemblies

using QFSW.QC;

[assembly: CommandPrefix("assembly.")]

[CommandPrefix("class1.")]
public static class MyClass1
{
    [Command("foo1")]
    private static void Foo1() { }
    
    [Command("foo2")]
    private static void Foo2() { }
}

[CommandPrefix("class2.")]
public static class MyClass2
{
    [Command("foo1")]
    private static void Foo1() { }
    
    [Command("foo2")]
    private static void Foo2() { }
}

This will yield the commands assembly.class1.foo1, assembly.class1.foo2, assembly.class2.foo1 and assembly.class2.foo2

[QcIgnore]

This attribute can be applied to any class or assembly and will instruct the Quantum Console Processor to ignore it when scanning for commands - this can be used to speed up the table generation if necessary
