Detailed Description

Provides access to dynamic type and function information at runtime.

Examples:

examples/reflection/dynamic/plugin.cpp, and examples/reflection/dynamic/reflection.cpp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

cpp::dynamic_reflection::Runtime::Runtime

(

const std::string &

name

)

Initializes a dynamic reflection runtime.

Parameters

name	Runtime identifier. This identifier will be used for logging and debugging purposes. It can be used to differentiate runtimes comming from different libraries (See cpp::dynamic_reflection::RuntimeLoaded)

Member Function Documentation

void cpp::dynamic_reflection::Runtime::addEntity

(

const std::shared_ptr< Entity > &

entity

)

Registers an entity in the dynamic reflection runtime.

Registers the entity in the runtime and attaches it to it. If there's an entity already registered with the entity full name, no registration is performed.

Parameters

entity

Pointer to an entity

Examples:

examples/reflection/dynamic/reflection.cpp.

Entity& cpp::dynamic_reflection::Runtime::getEntity

(

const std::string &

fullName

)

Returns a reference to the specified entity.

Parameters

fullName

Entity full qualified name. The behavior is undefined if no entity is registered with the given name. See hasEntity()

Returns

A reference to the entity

template<typename EntityType >

EntityType& cpp::dynamic_reflection::Runtime::getEntity ( const std::string &  fullName )

inline

Returns a reference to the specified entity.

Template Parameters

EntityType

Entity type (cpp::dynamic_reflection::Class, cpp::dynamic_reflection::Enum, etc). The behavior is undefined if the type doesn't match the entity kind (See Entity::kind())

Parameters

fullName

Entity full qualified name. The behavior is undefined if no entity is registered with the given name. See hasEntity()

Returns

A reference to the entity

bool cpp::dynamic_reflection::Runtime::hasEntity

(

const std::string &

fullName

)

const

Checks if an enity is registered with the given name.

Parameters

fullName

Entity full qualified name

Returns

True if the runtime has an entity registered with the given full name. False instead

Namespace& cpp::dynamic_reflection::Runtime::namespace_

(

)

Returns reflection information about the global namespace.

Returns

A reference to the global namespace entity

Examples:

examples/reflection/dynamic/plugin.cpp, and examples/reflection/dynamic/reflection.cpp.

Namespace& cpp::dynamic_reflection::Runtime::namespace_

(

const std::string &

fullName

)

Returns reflection information about a given namespace.

Parameters

fullName

Full qualified namespace name

Returns

A reference to the namespace entity. Throws a std::runtime_error exception if there's no namespace registered with that name

void cpp::dynamic_reflection::Runtime::reset

(

const std::string &

name

)

Clears (resets) registered type information.

Parameters

name	New runtime identifier
