Interface IBracketHandler

public interface IBracketHandler

Bracket handlers enable processing of the bracket syntax.

Inside brackets, any kind of token is acceptable except the closing bracket. (>) Bracket handlers (multiple handlers can be registered) will resolve these tokens into actual values. Values have to be ZenScript symbols and will resolve at compile-time.

These may of course return an expression that are executed on run-time, but the type of the resulting value must be known compile-time.
