Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ MetaConstructor()

OGF::MetaConstructor::MetaConstructor ( MetaClass * mclass )

explicit

Constructs a new MetaConstructor.

The constructed MetaConstructor is automatically added to the MetaClass. The generic method adapter for constructors is automatically defined as the method adapter.

Parameters

[in] mclass a pointer to the MetaClass

Member Function Documentation

◆ constructor_method_adapter()

static bool OGF::MetaConstructor::constructor_method_adapter	(	Object *	target,
		const std::string &	method_name,
		const ArgList &	args,
		Any &	ret_val
	)

staticprotected

The method adapter used for constructor.

The same method adapter can be used by all constructors. It uses the factory registered with the MetaConstructor.

Parameters

[in]	target	the meta class
[in]	method_name	name of the constructor
[in]	args	a const reference to the list of arguments
[out]	ret_val	the constructed object, in an Any.

Return values

true	if successful
false	otherwise

◆ factory()

Factory * OGF::MetaConstructor::factory ( ) const

inline

Gets the factory associated with this MetaConstructor.

Returns: a pointer to the factory associated with this MetaConstructor, or nil if there is no factory.

Definition at line 77 of file meta_constructor.h.

◆ set_factory()

void OGF::MetaConstructor::set_factory ( Factory * f )

inline

Sets the factory associated with this MetaConstructor.

Factories are typically automatically generated by the GOMGEN compiler.

Parameters

[in] f a pointer to the factory
