Oxygene - make interface automatic publivc

Elements Oxygene
1

We use Oxygene to have code both for our Delphi and .NET programmers, but we have a problem with all types declared in interface part of the unit - they are private or protected in Oxygene compiled dll from eg C#.

The only solution we have found so far is to add {$IFDEF DOTNET}public{$ENDIF} for all types to have the right level and still be able to compile in Delphi.

Is there an option which makes unit interface parts public by default?

Unfortunately, we currently don’t have an option to do this no. However something like this can probably be done with an aspect:

yourproject (anywhere in the project, just once):
[assembly:ClassLibrary23.MakeEverythingPublic]

classlibrary23:

namespace ClassLibrary23;

interface

uses 
  RemObjects.Elements.Cirrus;

type
  MakeEverythingPublic = public class(Attribute, RemObjects.Elements.Cirrus.ITypeInterfaceDecorator)
  private
  protected
  public
    method HandleInterface(Services: IServices; aType: ITypeDefinition);
  end;
  
implementation

method MakeEverythingPublic.HandleInterface(Services: IServices; aType: ITypeDefinition);
begin
  aType.Visibility := Visibility.Public;
end;

end.

Ie create a new class library, add an aspect class that makes the type public and reference it via:

[assembly:ClassLibrary23.MakeEverythingPublic]
