Feature Request - String Script Compile about dascript HOT 3 CLOSED

Gaijin is not an exception, and we definetly use file packing system. There is even DAS_NO_FILEIO define, which switches off default file access functions (as some game platforms won't allow it anyway)

To make support of any file packing system one can just implement:
class MyFileAccess final : public das::ModuleFileAccess{};
override those two functions (getNewFileInfo and getModuleInfo) and pass smart pointer to that class that to compileDaScript

In addition to that you can override class MyFileInfo final : public das::FileInfo {}, if, for example, you have some kind of memory mapped files and/or custom allocation.

Default implementation is include\daScript\simulate\fs_file_info.h but noone is required to use default.

Allowing send "just string" isn't really an option for more or less sophisiticated project, as most of scripts will require other some other modules anyway.

from dascript.

    auto access = make_smart<FileAccess>();
    auto fileInfo = make_unique<FileInfo>((char *) str, uint32_t(str_len));
    access->setFileInfo(modName, move(fileInfo));

is the simplest way to introduce string to file access as if it was a file.
