class TMethodCall: public TObject


TMethodCall

Method or function calling interface. Objects of this class contain
the (CINT) environment to call a global function or a method for an
object of a specific class with the desired arguments. This class is
espicially useful when a method has to be called more times for
different objects and/or with different arguments. If a function or
method needs to be called only once one better uses
TInterpreter::Execute().

Function documentation

TMethodCall(const TMethodCall& org)
 Default TMethodCall ctor. Use Init() to initialize the method call
 environment.
TMethodCall(TClass* cl, const char* method, const char* params)
 Create a method invocation environment for a specific class, method and
 parameters. The parameter string has the form: "\"aap\", 3, 4.35".
 To execute the method call TMethodCall::Execute(object,...).
 This two step method is much more efficient than calling for
 every invocation TInterpreter::Execute(...).
TMethodCall(const char* function, const char* params)
 Create a global function invocation environment. The parameter
 string has the form: "\"aap\", 3, 4,35". To execute the
 function call TMethodCall::Execute(...).
 This two step method is much more efficient than calling for
 every invocation TInterpreter::Execute(...).
TMethodCall(const TMethodCall& org)
 Copy ctor.
TMethodCall & operator=(const TMethodCall& rhs)
 Assignement operator.
~TMethodCall()
 TMethodCall dtor.
TObject * Clone(const char* newname = "") const
 Return an exact copy of this object.
void Init(TClass* cl, const char* method, const char* params)
 Initialize the method invocation environment. Necessary input
 information: the class, method name and the parameter string
 of the form "\"aap\", 3, 4.35".
 To execute the method call TMethodCall::Execute(object,...).
 This two step method is much more efficient than calling for
 every invocation TInterpreter::Execute(...).
void Init(const char* function, const char* params)
 Initialize the function invocation environment. Necessary input
 information: the function name and the parameter string of
 the form "\"aap\", 3, 4.35".
 To execute the method call TMethodCall::Execute(...).
 This two step method is much more efficient than calling for
 every invocation TInterpreter::Execute(...).
void InitImplementation(const char* methodname, const char* params, const char* proto, TClass* cl, const ClassInfo_t* cinfo)
 This function implements Init and InitWithPrototype.
void InitWithPrototype(TClass* cl, const char* method, const char* proto)
 Initialize the method invocation environment. Necessary input
 information: the class, method name and the prototype string of
 the form: "char*,int,float".
 To execute the method call TMethodCall::Execute(object,...).
 This two step method is much more efficient than calling for
 every invocation TInterpreter::Execute(...).
void InitWithPrototype(const char* function, const char* proto)
 Initialize the function invocation environment. Necessary input
 information: the function name and the prototype string of
 the form: "char*,int,float".
 To execute the method call TMethodCall::Execute(...).
 This two step method is much more efficient than calling for
 every invocation TInterpreter::Execute(...).
Bool_t IsValid()
 Return true if the method call has been properly initialized and is
 usable.
TFunction * GetMethod()
 Returns the TMethod describing the method to be executed. This takes
 all overriding and overloading into account (call TClass::GetMethod()).
 Since finding the method is expensive the result is cached.
void Execute(void *object)
 Execute the method (with preset arguments) for the specified object.
void Execute(void *object, const char *params)
 Execute the method for the specified object and argument values.
void Execute(void *object, Long_t &retLong)
 Execute the method (with preset arguments) for the specified object.
void Execute(void *object, const char *params, Long_t &retLong)
 Execute the method for the specified object and argument values.
void Execute(void *object, Double_t &retDouble)
 Execute the method (with preset arguments) for the specified object.
void Execute(void *object, const char *params, Double_t &retDouble)
 Execute the method for the specified object and argument values.
void Execute(void *object, char **retText)
 Execute the method (with preset arguments) for the specified object.
void Execute(void *object, const char *params, char **retText)
 Execute the method for the specified object and argument values.
void SetParamPtrs(void* paramArr, Int_t nparam = -1)
 ParamArr is an array containing the function argument values.
 If nparam = -1 then paramArr must contain values for all function
 arguments, otherwise Nargs-NargsOpt <= nparam <= Nargs, where
 Nargs is the number of all arguments and NargsOpt is the number
 of default arguments.
void ResetParam()
 Reset parameter list. To be used before the first call the SetParam().
void SetParam(Long_t l)
 Set long method parameter.
void SetParam(Double_t d)
 Set double method parameter.
void SetParam(Long64_t ll)
 Set long long method parameter.
void SetParam(ULong64_t ull)
 Set unsigned long long method parameter.
void Execute()
{ Execute((void *)0); }
void Execute(const char *params)
{ Execute((void *)0, params); }
void Execute(Long_t &retLong)
{ Execute((void *)0, retLong); }
void Execute(const char *params, Long_t &retLong)
{ Execute((void *)0, params, retLong); }
void Execute(Double_t &retDouble)
{ Execute((void *)0, retDouble); }
void Execute(const char *params, Double_t &retDouble)
{ Execute((void *)0, params, retDouble); }
void Execute(const char *, const char *, int * /*error*/ = 0)
{ }
void Execute(TMethod *, TObjArray *, int * /*error*/ = 0)
{ }
void CallDtorOnly(Bool_t set = kTRUE)
{ fDtorOnly = set; }
const char * GetMethodName()
{ return fMethod.Data(); }
const char * GetParams()
{ return fParams.Data(); }
const char * GetProto()
{ return fProto.Data(); }
