<a name="details" id="details"></a><h2 class="groupheader">Detailed Description</h2>
<div class="textblock"><p>The <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html">method</a> class provides several meta information about a method and can be invoked. </p>
<p>A instance of a method class can only be obtained from the <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1type.html">type</a> class. See <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1type.html#a4d31b84c050f5b22509c16d0379fe0c7">type::get_method()</a> and <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1type.html#a67ffced2826ff08f2a761acbeb133ae9">type::get_methods()</a>.</p>
<p>For registration a method, nested inside a class, see <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1registration_1_1class__.html#a3997256452d390b54990f202cf768bc7">registration::class_<T>::method()</a> and for global methods see <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1registration.html#a5da1c6eb947d700681faa7fec0bf23b7">registration::method()</a>.</p>
<h2>Meta Information </h2>
<p>A <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html">method</a> has a <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#a4175378b2b01539f7803462685229421">name</a>, a <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#a76c25c087fd4398a164b5ecdc8657828">signature</a>, a <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#a6664f371e32d239c5dfdc7abdcf9ba53">return type</a>, a list of <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#a5e28213d7e723f90a601029e5e06041b">parameter information</a> as well as attributes that specify its behavior: <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#a2af774fe427572fcc02ba27e545d83e0">is_static()</a>. When the <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html">method</a> was declared inside a class, then <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#a745efaefdfb89779773cccce3919379d">get_declaring_type()</a> can be used to obtain the type of this class.</p>
<p>The method can be invoked with <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#aea4351075b4cbe6f2f2b6500cf226f20">invoke()</a>; When its not a <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#a2af774fe427572fcc02ba27e545d83e0">static method</a> you have to provide a valid class instance to invoke the method. This instance can be the raw type on the stack; the current class hierarchy level doesn't matter. It can be also a raw pointer to the object or a <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1variant.html">variant</a> which contains the instance, again as pointer or stack object. When the method is declared as static you you still have to provide an empty instance object, use therefore the default ctor of <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1instance.html#a0cf19f806ca5d41cf2341a08c0c3a38c">instance()</a>, or as shortcut use simply <code>{}</code>.</p>
<p>A method will be successfully invoked when the provided instance can be converted to the <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#a745efaefdfb89779773cccce3919379d">declared class</a> type. When the method has <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#a5e28213d7e723f90a601029e5e06041b">parameters</a> defined, then the same number of arguments must be provided and the type itself must <b>100% match</b> the type of the registered function. An automatically type conversion is <b>not</b> performed.</p>
<p>The return type of <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#aea4351075b4cbe6f2f2b6500cf226f20">invoke()</a> is \ef variant object. This object contains not only the possible return value of a function, it also indicates whether the method was invoked or not. A <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1variant.html#aed6e6a2e29b4d1ac51a09b7d9037dd44">valid</a> variant object means, that then the method was successfully invoked, otherwise not. When the invoked method has no return type, i.e. is a <code>void</code> method, then a valid variant of type <code>void</code> is returned.</p>
<p>While the <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#aea4351075b4cbe6f2f2b6500cf226f20">invoke()</a> function can directly forward up to six arguments, it is sometime necessary to forward even more arguments. Therefore the function <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html#aad72c0f02fd54b44dd3f8b440b2efae6">invoke_variadic()</a> should be used; it allows to pack an unlimited amount of arguments into a std::vector and forward them to the function.</p>
<p>Another way to invoke a method is to use the <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1type.html">type</a> class through <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1type.html#afc7329cac11337f4022d7d10eebe80d3">type::invoke()</a>.</p>
<h2>Copying and Assignment </h2>
<p>A <a class="el" href="classrttr_1_1method.html">method</a> object is lightweight and can be copied by value. However, each copy will refer to the same underlying method.</p>
