Constructor Details

- (MethodObject) initialize(namespace, name, scope = :instance)

Creates a new method object in namespace with name and an instance or class scope

Parameters:

  • (NamespaceObject) namespace

    the namespace

  • (String, Symbol) name

    the method name

  • (Symbol) scope (defaults to: :instance)

    :instance or :class

Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method in the class YARD::CodeObjects::Base

Instance Attribute Details

- (Boolean) explicit

Whether the object is explicitly defined in source or whether it was inferred by a handler. For instance, attribute methods are generally inferred and therefore not explicitly defined in source.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

    whether the object is explicitly defined in source.

end

- (Array<Array(String, String)>) parameters

Returns the list of parameters parsed out of the method signature with their default values.

Returns:

- (Symbol) scope

  • (Symbol)

    the scope

end

- (Symbol) visibility

The visibility of the method (:public:, :protected, :private)

Returns:

  • (Symbol)

    the method visibility

end

- (SymbolHash?) attr_info

Returns the read/writer info for the attribute if it is one

Returns:

  • (SymbolHash)

    if there is information about the attribute

  • (nil)

    if the method is not an attribute

Since:

  • 0.5.3

end

- (String, Symbol) name(prefix = false)

Returns the name of the object.

Examples:

The name of an instance method (with prefix)

a_class_method.name(true) # => "mymethod"

Parameters:

  • (Boolean) prefix (defaults to: false)

    whether or not to show the prefix

Returns:
