Defining Overloads

Prior to following this guide, make sure you have setup tsover as described in Getting Started. To define operator overloads, you need to install a minimal runtime dependency called tsover-runtime.

npm install tsover-runtime

API

tsover-runtime exports the following:

Operator.plus - symbol used to define the + and += operators
Operator.minus - symbol used to define the - and -= operators
Operator.star - symbol used to define the * and *= operators
Operator.slash - symbol used to define the / and /= operators
Operator.deferOperation - symbol used to defer the operation to the other operand

Class Example

import {  } from 'tsover-runtime';

class  {
  : number;
  : number;

  constructor(: number, : number) {
    this. = ;
    this. = ;
  }

  // lhs + rhs
  [.](: , : ):  {
    return new (. + ., . + .);
  }

  [.](:  | number, :  | number): ;
  [.](
    :  | number,
    :  | number,
  ):  | typeof . {
    if (typeof  === 'number' &&  instanceof ) {
      return new ( * .,  * .);
    }
    if (typeof  === 'number' &&  instanceof ) {
      return new (. * , . * );
    }
    if ( instanceof  &&  instanceof ) {
      return new (. * ., . * .);
    }
    // Letting the other operand handle the operation
    return .;
  }
}

function () {
  'use tsover';
  const  = new (1, 2);

  const b =  * 2;      
const b: Vec2f
  const c = 4 * ;      
const c: Vec2f
}
