Insertion operator
Author
I'm having troubles registering the << operator for one of my classes. I saw an example in the forums here on a way that worked, and it was done by making the operator a global behavior (and also having an assignment operator registered). Is it possible to register the << operator as an object behaviour, or only global?

Currently it is only possible to register it as a global operator, which unfortunately makes it difficult to use as insertion operator, as the operands are not the true objects but instead copies of them.
To work around the fact that the objects are copies, you'll probably need to write a container class that holds the pointer to the real object and when copied just copies the pointer so that both the original container and the copy works on the same object.
I'm planning on changing this (if it is possible) to make it easier to do these very common overloads in AngelScript as well. One of potential solutions would be to allow the registration of the operator as an object behaviour.
