## Detailed Description

Object functions

## Function Documentation

any Qore::call_pseudo | ( | any | val,
|  | string | meth,
|  |  | ...
| ) |  |

calls a pseudo-method on the given value

Parameters

  val | the value to call the pseudo-method on
  meth | the string method name of the pseudo-method to call
  ... | any other arguments to the method

Returns
  the return value of the pseudo-method

See Also
  <value> for the class hierarchy of pseudo-classes

Note
  this function can be used for security to ensure that a given pseudo-method of the <object> class is called, as by default if a method of the same name is implemented by the object's class, the class method will be called instead.

Since
  Qore 0.8.5

any Qore::call_pseudo_args | ( | any | val,
|  | string | meth,
|  | *softlist | argv
| ) |  |

calls a pseudo-method on the given value with arguments given as a list

Parameters

  val | the value to call the pseudo-method on
  meth | the string method name of the pseudo-method to call
  argv | any other arguments to the method

Returns
  the return value of the pseudo-method

See Also
  <value> for the class hierarchy of pseudo-classes

Note
  this function can be used for security to ensure that a given pseudo-method of the <object> class is called, as by default if a method of the same name is implemented by the object's class, the class method will be called instead.

Since
  Qore 0.8.8

any Qore::callObjectMethod | ( | object | obj,
|  | string | method,
|  |  | ...
| ) |  |

Calls a method of an object, passing the remainder of the arguments to the function as arguments to the method.

Parameters

  obj | the object to use for the call
  method | the method to call
  ... | any additional arguments to the method

Returns
  the value returned by the method call

Example:
  my any $result = callObjectMethod($obj, "method", $arg1, $arg2);

Exceptions

  METHOD-DOES-NOT-EXIST | The named method does not exist in this class
  ILLEGAL-EXPLICIT-METHOD-CALL | The named method may not be called explicitly
  METHOD-IS-PRIVATE | The named method is private and therefore can only be called within the class
  BASE-CLASS-IS-PRIVATE | The named method is a member of a privately inherited base class

Note
  the method called could cause additional exceptions to be thrown

nothing Qore::callObjectMethod | ( |  | ) |

This function variant does nothing at all; it is only included for backwards-compatibility with qore prior to version 0.8.0 for functions that would ignore type errors in arguments.

Code Flags:
  RUNTIME_NOOP

any Qore::callObjectMethodArgs | ( | object | obj,
|  | string | method,
|  | *softlist | varg
| ) |  |

Calls a method of an object, using the optional third argument as the argument list to the method.

Parameters

  obj | the object to use for the call
  method | the method to call
  varg | any additional arguments to the method

Returns
  the value returned by the method call

Example:
  my any $result = callObjectMethodArgs($obj, "method", $arglist);

Exceptions

  METHOD-DOES-NOT-EXIST | The named method does not exist in this class
  ILLEGAL-EXPLICIT-METHOD-CALL | The named method may not be called explicitly
  METHOD-IS-PRIVATE | The named method is private and therefore can only be called within the class
  BASE-CLASS-IS-PRIVATE | The named method is a member of a privately inherited base class

Note
  the method called could cause additional exceptions to be thrown

nothing Qore::callObjectMethodArgs | ( |  | ) |

This function variant does nothing at all; it is only included for backwards-compatibility with qore prior to version 0.8.0 for functions that would ignore type errors in arguments.

Code Flags:
  RUNTIME_NOOP

list Qore::getMethodList | ( | object | obj | ) |

Returns a list of strings of the names of the methods of the class of the object passed as a parameter.

Code Flags:
  CONSTANT

Parameters

  obj | an object of the class to get the method list from

Returns
  a list of strings of the names of the methods of the class of the object passed as a parameter; returns all methods in the class, both private and public but does not return inherited methods

Example:
  my list $l = getMethodList($obj);

nothing Qore::getMethodList | ( |  | ) |

This function variant does nothing at all; it is only included for backwards-compatibility with qore prior to version 0.8.0 for functions that would ignore type errors in arguments.

Code Flags:
  RUNTIME_NOOP
