Member Function Documentation

call()

object Qore::Reflection::CopyMethod::call

(

object

obj

)

calls the copy method on given object and returns the new object

Example:

object obj2 = m.call(obj1);

Parameters

obj	the object to copy

Exceptions

PROGRAM-ERROR	thrown if the Program object holding the class and method has been destroyed
METHOD-ERROR	the object was not instantiated from the class implementing this method

constructor() [1/2]

Qore::Reflection::CopyMethod::constructor

(

Class

cls

)

Creates the object from the class if the class implements a copy method.

Example:

CopyMethod m(cls);

Parameters

cls	the class for the method

Exceptions

UNKOWN-METHOD

cannot find a copy method for the class

constructor() [2/2]

Qore::Reflection::CopyMethod::constructor

(

string

class_name

)

Creates the object from the class name or namespace path if the class implements a copy method.

Example:

CopyMethod m("Thread::Mutex");

Parameters

class_name

the class name or namespace path for the class

Exceptions

UNKNOWN-CLASS	cannot find a class with the given name or path
UNKOWN-METHOD	cannot find a copy method for the class
