UserDefinedMethod type

Methods

==(a:UserDefinedMethod, b:UserDefinedMethod)

Compare closures. Implemented as sameness comparison.

Example

F make_closure() { F(x) x + 1 }; make_closure()      == make_closure()       # false - different objects
F make_closure() { F(x) x + 1 }; make_closure().ip() == make_closure().ip()  # true - same code
f = F(x) x +1; f == f  # true - same instance

ArgvMatcher(option:Str, value:Any, f:UserDefinedMethod) Source: autoload/ArgvMatcher.ngs:30

Sets ARGV matching option.

Parameters

option	Option name. The only supported option at this time is "positionals".
value	Option value.

Example

# Any command line argument that is not "allreg" goes to "filters" parameters.
ArgvMatcher('positionals', 'filters') do
F main(filters:Arr, allreg:Bool=false) ...

c_pthread_create(attr:c_pthread_attr_t, start_routine:UserDefinedMethod, arg:Any)

Call PTHREAD_CREATE(3). Not recommended for direct calls, use Thread type instead.

Returns

Arr with [Int, c_pthread_t]. Int is the status returned by pthread_create(). c_pthread_t is a thin wrapper around underlying pthread_t, returned by PTHREAD_CREATE(3)

Example

F init(t:Thread, f:Fun, arg) {
	thread_attr = c_pthread_attr_t()
	c_pthread_attr_init(thread_attr)
	create_result = c_pthread_create(thread_attr, f, arg)
	code = create_result[0]
	if code {
		throw Error("Failed to c_pthread_create")
	}
	t.thread = create_result[1]
}

ip(c:UserDefinedMethod)

Get closure code instruction pointer.

Returns

Int

Example

f=F(x) x+1; f.ip()  # 116506

params(c:UserDefinedMethod)

Introspect closure parameters.

Example

... F the_one(something, predicate, body:Fun, found_more:Fun={null}, found_none:Fun={null}) ...
the_one.Arr()[1].params().each(echo)# {name=something, type=<Type Any>}
# {name=predicate, type=<Type Any>}
# {name=body, type=<Type Fun>}
# {name=found_more, type=<Type Fun>, dflt=<UserDefinedMethod <anonymous> at /usr/share/ngs/stdlib.ngs:198>}
# {name=found_none, type=<Type Fun>, dflt=<UserDefinedMethod <anonymous> at /usr/share/ngs/stdlib.ngs:198>}

push(hook:Hook, handler:UserDefinedMethod) Source: stdlib.ngs:783

Add unnamed handler. The hook is automatically named "pushed-N" where N is sequential integer.

Returns

New hook name

Str(c:UserDefinedMethod) Source: stdlib.ngs:846

String representation of a closure

Returns

Str

Example

Real.constructors[-1].Str().echo()  # Outputs: <UserDefinedMethod Real at /usr/share/ngs/stdlib.ngs:350>

~(argv:Arr, udm:UserDefinedMethod) Source: autoload/ArgvMatcher.ngs:51

Please do not use directly! Tries to match command line arguments with closure parameters.

Parameters

argv	Command line arguments, typically ARGV
udm	UserDefinedMethod to match with

Returns

Match (ParamsMatchY on success, ParamsMatchN on failure). If ParamsMatchY is returned it has "matches" field with values in suitable order to call c. If ParamsMatchN is returned, it has "message" field explaining why there was no match. Currently it's not printed anywhere.

Example

ArgvMatcher; (["--b", "B", "A", "C"] ~ F(a,b,c) 7).matches  # %[A B C]
(["A", "C", "D", "--b", "B"] ~ ArgvMatcher("positionals", "a") do F(a,b) 7).matches  # %[%[A C D] B]
