Member Function Documentation

call()

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

calls the given method variant 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
RUNTIME-TYPE-ERROR	invalid argument types passed to the variant

callArgs()

callArgs()

auto Qore::Reflection::NormalMethodVariant::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
RUNTIME-TYPE-ERROR	invalid argument types passed to the variant

call()

constructor()

Qore::Reflection::NormalMethodVariant::constructor

(

)

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

Exceptions

NORMALMETHODVARIANT-CONSTRUCTOR-ERROR

this exception is thrown if this class is constructed directly (also if directly inherited by user classes)
