An experimental named parameters implementation using build macros.

haxelib git named https://github.com/skial/named.git

And add -lib named to your hxml file.

You have two options, use Named with Klas or not.

package ;

class Main implements Klas {
	
	public function new() {
		var result = long(@:g 'World', @b 'Hello');
	}
	
	public function long(?a:String, ?b:String, ?c:String, ?d:String, ?e:String, ?f:String, ?g:String):String {
		// Do something.
	}
	
}

package ;

@:autoBuild( uhx.macro.NamedArgs.build() )
class Main {
	
	public function new() {
		var result = long(@:g 'World', @b 'Hello');
	}
	
	public function long(?a:String, ?b:String, ?c:String, ?d:String, ?e:String, ?f:String, ?g:String):String {
		// Do something.
	}
	
}

An experiment to implement named parameters using a build macro.

• You can use either style of meta tags, runtime @name or compile time @:name, it doesn't matter.
• You have to name the meta tag the same as the parameter name.
• It can be used with both optional or non optional parameters.

You can find Named tests in the uhu-spec library.
