Add custom display strings #48

Open

pezipink wants to merge 3 commits into SwensenSoftware:master from pezipink:master

pezipink commented Aug 2, 2015

This PR attempts to add two related features;

eye.SetDisplayString(type, displayString) where the display string is similar to DebuggerDisplayAttribute. That is, the string may contain {PropertyNames} which will be replaced with the .ToString() version of the property in question.
eye.SetFormatter f accepts a callback function that allows the user to generate display strings directly for each instance within the context of their program.

Notes:

I just realised there is a regex helper, maybe my regex could should be changed to use it, though it is very simple.
No tests yet. I have tested it pretty well and it is quite defensive.
I should really update the docs!

Future enhancements

Display strings only work with properties, would be cool to include members and methods as well.
