[1.12.2] Forge / Maven conditionals

[Pixtar]

Hi all,

a user asked me, if I could port my mod back to 1.11.2 and 1.10.2. That's not the problem at all, I've more a problem to use conditionals to have an easy to use code afterwards without losing any functionality.

As far as I know maven solves the topic conditionals by using different profiles which are used to include different files.

So if I'm right let us take the following function:

FMLCommonHandler.instance().getMinecraftServerInstance().getWorld( id ); //in 1.12.2
FMLCommonHandler.instance().getMinecraftServerInstance().worlds[ id ]; //in 1.11.2
FMLCommonHandler.instance().getMinecraftServerInstance().worldServers[ id ]; //in 1.10.2

 

Now I need to put them into a method like public static WorldServer getServer( int id ) and this one into separated files like:

example.utils.getWorldServer.1-12-2.java;
example.utils.getWorldServer.1-11-2.java;
example.utils.getWorldServer.1-10-2.java;

 

To use them I need to include the entire namespace with import example.utils.getWorldServer.*;

 

The last step would be to create a xml file handling the profiles which java file should be included, where I got stucked.

 

I mean shouldn't it be possible through gradle too? Like:

if ( project.minecraft.version.equals("1.12.2") )
// include file 1-12-2.java
else if ( project.minecraft.version.equals("1.11.2") )
// include file 1-11-2.java
else if ( project.minecraft.version.equals("1.10.2") )
// include file 1-10-2.java

 

If you have any other more sophisticated ideas to solve this topic I will appreciate it.

 

Kind regards,

Pixtar
