CALL_METHOD
CALL_METHOD
calls the object method specified by
Name
, passing any additional parameters as its arguments. CALL_METHOD can be used as either a function or a procedure, depending on whether the called method is a function or procedure.
Although not as flexible as the
EXECUTE function, CALL_METHOD is much faster. Therefore, CALL_METHOD should be used in preference to EXECUTE whenever possible.
Calling Sequence
CALL_METHOD,
Name, ObjRef, [, P
1
, ..., P
n
]
or
Result = CALL_METHOD(
Name, ObjRef, [, P
1
, ..., P
n
])
Arguments
Name
A string containing the name of the method to be called. This argument can be a variable, which allows the called method to be determined at runtime.
ObjRef
A scalar object reference that will be passed to the method as the
Self
argument.
P
i
The arguments to be passed to the method given by
Name
. These arguments are the positional and keyword arguments documented for the called method, and are passed to the called method exactly as if it had been called directly.
