Detailed Description

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Object::~Object () [inline, virtual]

Destructor.

Object::Object () [protected]

Member Function Documentation

void Object::constructor_function ( void * place) [static, protected]

Reimplemented in ListMetaClass, ObjectFactory, PointerMetaClass, and STLMetaClass.

const LString & Object::getClassName () const [inline, virtual]

Get the name of the class of which this object is an instance of.

This returns the instance name of the actual dynamic instance.

const AggregateMetaClass * Object::get_aggregate_meta_class () const [inline, virtual]

Get the aggregate meta class object of this object.

For internal use only.

const LString & Object::get_class_name () [static]

This returns the instance name of this Class - "Object".

Reimplemented in AggregateMetaClass, IIntegerMetaClass, IntegerMetaClass, LStringMetaClass, ListMetaClass, MetaClass, ObjectAggregateMetaClass, PointerMetaClass, STLMetaClass, StringMetaClass, SuifObject, TestX, TestY, and UnionMetaClass.

FieldWrapper Object::get_member ( const LString & name) const [inline, virtual]

one input name => returns the address of the object and its meta_class.

Parameters:
name   name of a field.
address   location to store the field value.
meta_class   location to store the type of the field.

For internal use only.

const MetaClass * Object::get_meta_class ( void) const [inline, virtual]

Get the meta class object of this object.

For internal use only.

bool Object::isA ( const LString & className) const [inline, virtual]

Return true if this object is an instance of the class named by className.

Parameters:
className   name of a class.
Returns:
true iff this object is an instance of the class className.

bool Object::isKindOf ( const LString & className) const [inline, virtual]

Return true if this object is a_kind_of the class named by className.

Object o is a_kind_of class c iff o is an instance of c or a subclass of c.

Parameters:
className   name of a class.
Returns:
true iff this object is a_kind_of the class className.

void Object::set_meta_class ( const MetaClass * metaClass) [inline, virtual]

For internal use only.
