Member Function Documentation

Specifier puddle::MetaClassMember::access_type ( void  ) const [inherited]

Returns the access type specifier.

Returns specifier for the access type (private | protected | public) for the reflected class member variable, function or constructor.

std::string puddle::MetaNamedObject::base_name ( void  ) const [inherited]

Returns the base name of the reflected entity.

This function returns the base name of the reflected construct (type, class, namespace, member variable, etc.) without the nested name specifier.

mirror::meta_member_variable_tag puddle::MetaMemberVariable::category ( void  ) const
std::string puddle::MetaNamedScopedObject::full_name ( void  ) const [inherited]

Returns the full name of the reflected entity.

This function returns the full name of the reflected construct (type, class, namespace, member variable, etc.) including the nested name specifier.

Type puddle::MetaMemberVariable::get ( const Class &  instance) const

Gets the value of the member when given an instance of the Class.

This function allows to get the value of the member variable reflected by this MetaMemberVariable of the provided instance.

Template Parameters:
Classthe type of the parent class to which this member variable belongs to.
Parameters:
instancean instance of the Class, the value of the member variable of which is to be obtained.
Returns:
The result has the same type as the member variable.
template<typename Category >
Boolean puddle::MetaObject::is_a ( Category  ) const [inherited]

Returns true if the meta-object is of the specified Category.

Template Parameters:
Categorya meta-object category tag type

mirror::meta_object_tag
mirror::categorize_meta_object
mirror::meta_object_category
std::string puddle::MetaNamedScopedObject::local_name ( void  ) const [inherited]

Returns the local name of the reflected entity.

This function returns the local name of the reflected construct (type, class, namespace, member variable, etc.) including the partial or full nested name specifier, based on whether the parent scope or one of its enclosing scopes of the construct reflected by this MetaNamedScopedObject is used with the PUDDLE_USING_NAMESPACE macro.

See also:
PUDDLE_USING_NAMESPACE
void puddle::MetaMemberVariable::set ( Class &  instance,
Type  new_value 
) const

Sets the value of the member when given an instance of the Class.

This function allows to set the value of the member variable reflected by this MetaMemberVariable of the provided instance to the provided new_value.

Template Parameters:
Classthe type of the parent class to which this member variable belongs to.
Typethe type of the value to be set. This type must be implicitly convertible to the type of the member variable.
Parameters:
instancean instance of the Class, the value of the member variable of which is to be modified.
new_valuethe new value to be set to the member variable of the passed instance.
Specifier puddle::MetaVariable::storage_class ( void  ) const [inherited]

Returns the storage class tag.

Specifier reflecting the storage class (auto|static|mutable|...) for the reflected variable.
