◆ constructor()

Qore::Reflection::AbstractConstant::constructor ( )

Throws an exception; this class cannot be created directly or used in a user class hierarchy.

Exceptions
ABSTRACTCONSTANT-CONSTRUCTOR-ERRORthe AbstractConstant class cannot be constructed directly or inherited directly by a user-defined class

◆ getModifierList()

list<string> Qore::Reflection::AbstractConstant::getModifierList ( )

returns a list of strings of modifiers describing the constant

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
list<string> l = con.getModifierList();
Returns
list of strings of modifiers describing the member; possible values are:
  • "private": gives the accessibility of the constant (class constants only)
  • "private:internal": gives the accessibility of the constant (class constants only)
  • "public": for non-class constants, this is returned if the public flag is on the constant, meaning that it will be exported to child Program objects, otherwise thhis gives the access permission for class constants
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the constant has been destroyed

getModifiers()

◆ getModifiers()

int Qore::Reflection::AbstractConstant::getModifiers ( )

returns a bitfield of modifiers describing the constant

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
int i = con.getModifiers();
Returns
a bitfield of modifiers describing the constant; possible values are:
  • MC_PRIVATE: gives the accessibility of the constant (class constants only)
  • MC_PRIVATEINTERNAL: gives the accessibility of the constant (class constants only)
  • MC_PUBLIC: for non-class constants, this is returned if the public flag is on the constant, meaning that it will be exported to child Program objects, otherwise thhis gives the access permission for class constants
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the constant has been destroyed
See also
getModifierList()

◆ getName()

string Qore::Reflection::AbstractConstant::getName ( )

returns the constant's name

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
string name = con.getName();
Returns
the constant's name
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the constant has been destroyed

◆ getSourceLocation()

hash<SourceLocationInfo> Qore::Reflection::AbstractConstant::getSourceLocation ( )

Returns the source location of the contant declaration.

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
hash<SourceLocationInfo> loc = con.getSourceLocation();
Returns
the source location of the contant declaration
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the constant has been destroyed

◆ getType()

Type Qore::Reflection::AbstractConstant::getType ( )

Returns the type object for this constant.

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
Type t = con.getType();
Returns
the type object for this constant
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the constant has been destroyed

◆ getValue()

auto Qore::Reflection::AbstractConstant::getValue ( )

Returns the value of the constant.

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
auto v = con.getValue();
Returns
the value for the constant
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the constant has been destroyed

◆ isBuiltin()

bool Qore::Reflection::AbstractConstant::isBuiltin ( )

returns True if the constant is builtin

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
bool b = con.isBuiltin();
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the constant has been destroyed

◆ isClassConstant()

bool Qore::Reflection::AbstractConstant::isClassConstant ( )

returns True if the constant is a class constant

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
bool b = con.isClassConstant();
Returns
True if the constant is a class constant
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the constant has been destroyed

◆ isEqual()

bool Qore::Reflection::AbstractConstant::isEqual ( AbstractConstant  con)

Returns True if the AbstractConstant object passed as an argument is equal to the current object; False if not.

Code Flags:
CONSTANT
Example:
bool b = con1.isEqual(con2);
Parameters
conthe constant to check with the current object for equality
Returns
True if the AbstractConstant object passed as an argument is equal to the current object; False if not

◆ isUser()

bool Qore::Reflection::AbstractConstant::isUser ( )

returns True if the constant is a user constant

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY
Example:
bool b = con.isUser();
Exceptions
PROGRAM-ERRORthrown if the Program object holding the constant has been destroyed
