You can access the registered custom types from Lua.
You can get such information like: how many of them, name of type, bytesize of type, ...

Works only with CE6.6.
- readCustom() writeCustom(), .getValue() and .setValue()
- AA CustomType and Lua CustomType supported

Usage:
Code:
getCustomTypeCount() - returns the number of "custom types" loaded into CE.

getCustomType(index) - returns the custom type data (a table) for chosen custom type,
                       index=1 first type, index=2 second type, ...
                       
getCustomType(name) - see above but here you just input custom type name

custom type data (table) has fields:
name, bytesize, alignment, usesFloat (true or false),
scriptUsesCDecl (true or false), customTypeType (0 - AA, 1 - Lua)

and method:
getValue(address)
setValue(address,value)


readCustom(index, address) - reads value from the specified address, custom type (by index)
readCustom(name, address) - reads value from the specified address, custom type (by name)

writeCustom(index, address, value) - writes value to the specified address, custom type (by index)
writeCustom(name, address, value) - writes value to the specified address, custom type (by name)



example1 (enumerating custom types):
Code:
for i=1,getCustomTypeCount() do
  local customtype = getCustomType(i)
  print('custom type name: "'..customtype.name..'"',', uses float: '..tostring(customtype.usesFloat))
end



example2
Code:
local ct1 = getCustomType(1)
local value1 = ct1.getValue(address1)

local ct2 = getCustomType('4byte Big Endian')
local value2 = ct2.getValue(address2)



example3
Code:
local value3 = readCustom(4, address3)
local value4 = readCustom('custom type name', address4)

Thank you very much for this. When I have the time I'll be sure to put this to good use.
