object
Part of the D programming language runtime library. Forms the symbols available to all D programs. Includes Object, which is the root of the class object hierarchy.This module is implicitly imported.
- alias bit;
- Standard boolean type.
- class Object;
- All D class objects inherit from Object.
- const(char)[] toString();
- Convert Object to a human readable string.
- uint toHash();
- Compute hash function for Object.
- int opCmp(Object o);
- Compare with another Object obj.
Returns:
this < obj < 0 this == obj 0 this > obj > 0
- int opEquals(Object o);
- Returns !=0 if this object does have the same contents as obj.
- static Object factory(const(char)[] classname);
- Create instance of class specified by classname.
The class must either have no constructors or have
a default constructor.
Returns:
null if failed
- struct Interface;
- Information about an interface.
A pointer to this appears as the first entry in the interface's vtbl[].
- ClassInfo classinfo;
- .classinfo for this interface (not for containing class)
- int offset;
- offset to Interface 'this' from Object 'this'
- class ClassInfo;
- Runtime type information about a class. Can be retrieved for any class type
or instance by using the .classinfo property.
A pointer to this appears as the first entry in the class's vtbl[].
- byte[] init;
- class static initializer
(init.length gives size in bytes of class)
- const(char)[] name;
- class name
- void*[] vtbl;
- virtual function pointer table
- Interface[] interfaces;
- interfaces this class implements
- ClassInfo base;
- base class
- static ClassInfo find(const(char)[] classname);
- Search all modules for ClassInfo corresponding to classname.
Returns:
null if not found
- Object create();
- Create instance of Object represented by 'this'.
- const(MemberInfo[]) getMembers(const(char)[] name);
- Search for all members with the name 'name'.
If name[] is null, return all members.
- struct OffsetTypeInfo;
- Array of pairs giving the offset and type information for each
member in an aggregate.
- uint offset;
- Offset of member from start of object
- TypeInfo ti;
- TypeInfo for this member
- class TypeInfo;
- Runtime type information about a type.
Can be retrieved for any type using a
TypeidExpression.
- uint getHash(const void* p);
- Returns a hash of the instance of a type.
- int equals(const void* p1, const void* p2);
- Compares two instances for equality.
- int compare(const void* p1, const void* p2);
- Compares two instances for <, ==, or >.
- uint tsize();
- Returns size of the type.
- void swap(void* p1, void* p2);
- Swaps two instances of the type.
- TypeInfo next();
- Get TypeInfo for 'next' type, as defined by what kind of type this is,
null if none.
- void[] init();
- Return default initializer, null if default initialize to 0
- uint flags();
- Get flags for type: 1 means GC should scan for pointers
- OffsetTypeInfo[] offTi();
- Get type information on the contents of the type; null if not available
- class Exception;
- All recoverable exceptions should be derived from class Exception.
- this(const(char)[] msg);
- Constructor; msg is a descriptive message for the exception.
- class Error: object.Exception;
- All irrecoverable exceptions should be derived from class Error.
- this(const(char)[] msg);
- Constructor; msg is a descriptive message for the exception.
