DLLEXPORT bool qore_type_can_convert_to_scalar (const QoreTypeInfo *ti)
 returns true if the type's value can be converted to a scalar; the argument may be nullptr meaning no type restrictions

◆ qore_type_assign_value()

DLLEXPORT QoreValue qore_type_assign_value ( const QoreTypeInfo *  t,
const QoreValue  value,
ExceptionSink xsink 
)

processes the given value by the given type and returns the result; a Qore-language exception is thrown if the value is not assignable to the type

Since
Qore 0.9.4

◆ qore_type_get_accept_types()

DLLEXPORT QoreHashNode* qore_type_get_accept_types ( const QoreTypeInfo *  t)

returns a hash of base types accepted by the type

Since
Qore 0.9.4

◆ qore_type_get_base_type()

DLLEXPORT qore_type_t qore_type_get_base_type ( const QoreTypeInfo *  t)

returns the base type code for the type or NT_ALL for those that don't have types

Since
Qore 0.9.4

◆ qore_type_get_path()

DLLEXPORT const char* qore_type_get_path ( const QoreTypeInfo *  ti)

returns the full namespace path of the type; the argument may be nullptr meaning no type restrictions

Since
Qore 1.0

◆ qore_type_get_return_types()

DLLEXPORT QoreHashNode* qore_type_get_return_types ( const QoreTypeInfo *  t)

returns a hash of base types returned by the type

Since
Qore 0.9.4

◆ qore_type_is_assignable_from() [1/3]

DLLEXPORT int qore_type_is_assignable_from ( const QoreTypeInfo *  t,
QoreValue  value 
)

returns true if the given type can be assigned from the given value

Parameters
tthe type to check assignability to
valuethe value to check if it can be assigned to t
Returns
a type match code for the assignability

The type argument t may be nullptr meaning no type restrictions

Since
Qore 0.9.4

◆ qore_type_is_assignable_from() [2/3]

DLLEXPORT bool qore_type_is_assignable_from ( const QoreTypeInfo *  ti1,
const QoreTypeInfo *  ti2 
)

returns true if ti2's return type is compatible with ti1 input (i.e. ti1 is assignable from ti2)

Parameters
ti1the type to check assignability to
ti2the type to see if it can be assigned to ti1
Returns
true if ti2's return type is compatible with ti1 input (i.e. ti1 is assignable from ti2)

either argument may be nullptr meaning no type restrictions

Since
Qore 0.9.4

◆ qore_type_is_assignable_from() [3/3]

DLLEXPORT bool qore_type_is_assignable_from ( const QoreTypeInfo *  ti1,
const QoreTypeInfo *  ti2,
bool &  may_not_match 
)

returns true if ti2's return type is compatible with ti1 input (i.e. ti1 is assignable from ti2)

Parameters
ti1the type to check assignability to
ti2the type to see if it can be assigned to ti1
may_not_matchan output variable, if true then the assignment is not guaranteed to succeed and may fail at runtime
Returns
true if ti2's return type is compatible with ti1 input (i.e. ti1 is assignable from ti2)

either argument may be nullptr meaning no type restrictions

Since
Qore 0.9.4
