[alpha ware]
[This description will change as time goes]
[problem]
X-Perl (and other unit frames I am sure) do not detect spec changes, do not allow to have automatic changing of configuration based on party type (5 mans/ raids)
[What I want to do with this addon]
I would like this addon to be able to read from X-Perl (to start maybe other unit frames in the future) it configuration settins, then allow the user to set a configuration for the following:
Default:
Main Spec solo/5man:
Main Spec raid:
Main Spec PvP:
Secondary Spec solo/5man:
Secondary Spec raid:
Secondary Spec PvP:
Arena:
The default one will have to be set by the user, the other 7 do not have to be set as they will use the default one if nothing is set, and the addon will detect which spec is in use (Main or Secondary) and type of Party (5 mans or raid) or if we are in a PvP area (such as a BG or WG, or arena)
I know that the PvP setting is do able where as outfitter does it already.
I know that the spec change is posable where as bartender4dualspecs exists and works, outfiter can detect it, also feral by night also does it too.
I have listed this as Experimental for now so that no one finds it on the main curse site for now.
The stage I am at now, is to see if I can find any one that wants to join with me on it, look at the other addons listed above to see how they detect what I need/want to detect, and start to put things together.
So if you are intersted in working with me on this please contact me here and we can see where we stand.
Also I would strongly suggest you get a copy of eclipse and luaEclipse http://luaeclipse.luaforge.net/manual.html#installation I am a fan of eclipse as a IDE and the link is for a plugin for eclipse for the Lua language.
