Methods

Methods in Spice basically are functions / procedures, assigned to a struct. Within methods, fields of the parent struct can be accessed like this: this.fieldName.

Usage

A basic setup with one struct field, as well es a getter and a setter could look like this:

Spice

type Letter struct {
    string content
}

f<string> Letter.getContent() {
    return this.content;
}

p Letter.setContent(string text) {
    this.content = text;
}

f<int> main() {
    dyn letter = Letter { "No content" };
    letter.setContent("Hello World!");
    printf("Content: %s", letter.getContent());
}

Output:

Text Only
1
Content: Hello World!

Tip

You can initialize or destroy structs by using constructors and destructors. Read more about those in the respective documentation section.
