This method returns method information for the nth (static or dynamic) method known to a given class. Not generally overridden.

For backward compatibility, this method does not take an Environment parameter.

Original Class
SOMClass

Syntax

boolean somGetNthMethodData (SOMClass receiver, long index, somMethodData md)

Parameters

receiver (SOMClass)
A pointer to the class that produced the index value.
index (long)
An index returned as a result of a previous call of somGetMethodIndex.
md (somMethodData)
A pointer to a somMethodData structure.

Return Code

rc (boolean)
  • true - Returns boolean true if successful.
  • false - Returns false if not successful.

Remarks

This method loads a somMethodData structure with data describing the method identified by the passed index. The index must have been produced by a previous call to exactly the same receiver class; the same method will in general have different indexes in different classes. If the index does not identify a method known to this class, then false is returned; otherwise, true is returned after loading the somMethodData structure with data corresponding to the indicated method.

Example Code

#include <somcls.xh>
main
{
   somEnvironmentNew();
   somId gmiId = somIdFromString("somGetMethodIndex");
   long index = _SOMClass->somGetMethodIndex(gmiId);
   somMethodData md;
   boolean rc = _SOMClass->somGetNthMethodData(index,&md);
   SOM_Test(rc && somCompareIds(gmiId, md.id));
}
