Member Function Documentation

call()

auto Qore::Reflection::NormalMethod::call	(	object	obj,
			...
	)

calls the given method with the given object; the object must be a member of a compatible class

Example:

auto v = m.call(obj, arg1, arg2);

Parameters

obj	the object to make the call on; must be an object of the class implementing the method or a METHOD-ERROR exception is thrown
...	optional arguments to the method

Returns

the return value of the method call

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

callArgs()

callArgs()

auto Qore::Reflection::NormalMethod::callArgs	(	object	obj,
		*softlist< auto >	argv
	)

calls the given method with the given object; the object must be a member of a compatible class

Example:

auto v = m.callArgs(obj, (arg1, arg2));

Parameters

obj	the object to make the call on; must be an object of the class implementing the method or a METHOD-ERROR exception is thrown
argv	optional arguments to the method

Returns

the return value of the method call

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

call()

constructor() [1/2]

Qore::Reflection::NormalMethod::constructor	(	Class	cls,
		string	method
	)

Creates the object from the class and normal (non-static, non-special) method name.

Example:

NormalMethod m(cls, "lock");

Parameters

cls	the class for the method
method	the (non-static, non-special) method name

Exceptions

UNKOWN-METHOD

cannot find a normal (non-static) method with the given name

constructor() [2/2]

Qore::Reflection::NormalMethod::constructor	(	string	class_name,
		string	method
	)

Creates the object from the class name or namespace path and normal (non-static, non-special) method name.

Example:

NormalMethod m("Thread::Mutex", "lock");

Parameters

class_name	the class name or namespace path for the class implementing the method
method	the normal (non-static, non-special) method name

Exceptions

UNKNOWN-CLASS	cannot find a class with the given name or path
UNKOWN-METHOD	cannot find a normal (non-static, non-special) method with the given name
