Member Function Documentation

◆ constructor()

Qore::Reflection::AbstractMethod::constructor ( )

Throws an exception if called directly; this class can only be instantiated by builtin subclasses.

Exceptions
ABSTRACTMETHOD-CONSTRUCTOR-ERRORthis exception is thrown if this class is constructed directly (also if directly inherited by user classes)

◆ getClass()

AbstractClass Qore::Reflection::AbstractMethod::getClass ( )

Returns the class for the method.

Code Flags:
CONSTANT
Example:
AbstractClass cls = m.getClass();
Returns
the class for the method

◆ getMethodTypeName()

string Qore::Reflection::AbstractMethod::getMethodTypeName ( )

returns the type of method as a string; one of "normal", "static", "constructor", "destructor", "copy"

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
string type = m.getMethodTypeName();
Returns
the type of method as a string; one of "normal", "static", "constructor", "destructor", "copy"
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the class and method has been destroyed

◆ getVariant()

AbstractMethodVariant Qore::Reflection::AbstractMethod::getVariant (   ...)

Returns the given direct child method variant declared in this method or throws an exception if the method variant is not defined.

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
AbstractMethodVariant v = n.getVariant(IntType, StringType);
Parameters
...type arguments for the variant; types must be compatible for the search to be successful
Returns
given method variant or throws an exception if the method variant is not defined in this method
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the class and the method has been destroyed
RUNTIME-OVERLOAD-ERRORthrown if the variant cannot be matched to the given arguments
ENCODING-CONVERSION-ERRORthis exception could be thrown if the string argument is not in the default character encoding and an error occurs during encoding conversion
See also

◆ getVariantArgs()

AbstractMethodVariant Qore::Reflection::AbstractMethod::getVariantArgs ( softlist< Type >  argv)

Returns the given direct child method variant declared in this method or throws an exception if the method variant is not defined.

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
AbstractMethodVariant v = n.getVariantArgs((IntType, StringType));
Parameters
argvtype arguments for the variant; types must be compatible for the search to be successful
Returns
given method variant or throws an exception if the method variant is not defined in this method
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the class and the method has been destroyed
RUNTIME-OVERLOAD-ERRORthrown if the variant cannot be matched to the given arguments
ENCODING-CONVERSION-ERRORthis exception could be thrown if the string argument is not in the default character encoding and an error occurs during encoding conversion

◆ getVariants()

list<AbstractMethodVariant> Qore::Reflection::AbstractMethod::getVariants ( )

returns the variants implemented by the method

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
list<AbstractMethodVariant> l = f.getVariants();
Returns
the variants implemented by the method
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the class and the method has been destroyed

◆ isStatic()

bool Qore::Reflection::AbstractMethod::isStatic ( )

returns True if the method is a static method

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
bool b = m.isStatic();
Returns
True if the method is a static method
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the class and method has been destroyed
