Need to get "define" for enum type about zap HOT 11 CLOSED

<struct name="SimpleStruct">
        <cluster code="0x050F"/>
        <item name="a" type="UINT8U" optional="false"/>
        <item name="b" type="BOOLEAN" optional="false"/>
        <item name="c" define="SimpleEnum" type="ENUM8" optional="false"/>

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS "STRUCT_ITEM";
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "STRUCT_ITEM" (
  "STRUCT_REF" integer,
  "FIELD_IDENTIFIER" integer,
  "NAME" text,
  "TYPE" text,
  "IS_ARRAY" integer,
  "MIN_LENGTH" integer,
  "MAX_LENGTH" integer,
  "IS_WRITABLE" integer,
  foreign key (STRUCT_REF) references STRUCT(STRUCT_ID)
);

looks like currently zap don't support struct item with define ?

for enum type, we would like to get "define"

then I can write {{asType label}} = static_cast<{{define}}>(v);

An alternate way to do this with the existing version can be {{asType label}} = static_cast<{{as_delimited_macro name}}>(v);

from zap.

it does not work as expected if using {{asType label}} = static_cast<{{as_delimited_macro name}}>(v), which returns c = static_cast(v);

from zap.

Could you give me the example template on how you are using this?

I'm a bit confused with this, @yunhanw-google :
why would we not simply do:

<item name="c"  type="SimpleEnum" optional="false"/>

instead of:

<item name="c" define="SimpleEnum" type="ENUM8" optional="false"/>

from zap.

If I define this way,

how can I check SimpleEnum is enum type?

{{#if (isEnum type) }}
uint8_t v;
ReturnErrorOnFailure(ClusterObjectUtils::Decode(reader, v));
//zap issue 231 to return right enum type
{{asType label}} = static_cast<{{asUnderlyingZclType type}}>(v);
break;

i need to write this kind of code
check if it is enum type, then generate some code

        {{#zcl_struct_items}}
        case k{{asType label}}FieldId:
            {{#if (isEnum type) }}
            uint8_t v;
            ReturnErrorOnFailure(ClusterObjectUtils::Decode(reader, v));
            //zap issue 231 to return right enum type
            {{asType label}} = static_cast<{{define}}>(v);
            break;
            {{else if isArray}}
            return CHIP_ERROR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED;
            {{else}}
            ReturnErrorOnFailure(ClusterObjectUtils::Decode(reader, {{asType label}}));
            break;
            {{/if}}
        {{/zcl_struct_items}}

from zap.

another alternative is that, we add one additional flag, isEnum similar to isArray for struct item(#229)

from zap.

There is this helper which may be helpful.
{{#if_is_enum type}}
type is enum
{{else}}
type is not enum
{{/if_is_enum}}

Regarding "static_cast<{{as_delimited_macro name}}>(v), which returns c = static_cast(v);" I am not sure why this happened. Is this for a particular struct item or all of them?

{{#if_is_enum type}}
type is enum
{{else}}
type is not enum
{{/if_is_enum}}

Just tried, it cannot detect SimpleEnum is enum.
The issue here is that the internal zap don't have knowledge about the customized enum type currently. Either zap know how to parse define, or parse isEnum or some other way zap get knowledge from xml to know it is enum

from zap.

So if I do this, does this meet your meeds:
1.) Add the IS_ENUM field in the DB.
2.) Allow for isEnum="true" in the XML.
3.) load and populate these flags.
4.) Give you a helper is_enum_type or something like that that will allow to modify how these types are generated.
