Flags

Efficient bit flag storage using a single integer.

The Flags abstract provides a type-safe way to store and manipulate boolean flags using bit operations. Each bit in the underlying integer represents a boolean value, allowing up to 32 flags to be stored in a single Int.

This is particularly useful for:

• Storing multiple boolean states efficiently
• Passing multiple boolean parameters compactly
• Optimizing memory usage in data structures
• Creating bit masks for filtering operations

Example:

var flags = new Flags();
flags.setBool(0, true);  // Set first flag
flags.setBool(2, true);  // Set third flag

if (flags.bool(0)) {
    trace("First flag is set");
}

// Create flags from values
var flags2 = Flags.fromValues(true, false, true); // bits: 101
