Example:
o1 = new test
aList = methods(o1)
for x in aList
cCode = "o1."+x+"()"
eval(cCode)
next
Class Test
func f1
see "hello from f1" + nl
func f2
see "hello from f2" + nl
func f3
see "hello from f3" + nl
func f4
see "hello from f4" + nl
Output:
hello from f1
hello from f2
hello from f3
hello from f4
We can test if the object contains an attribute or not using the isattribute() function
Syntax:
isattribute(object,cAttributeName) --> Returns True if the object contains the attribute
Example:
o1 = new point
class point x y z
We can test if the object contains a private attribute or not using the isprivateattribute() function
Syntax:
Example:
o1 = new person
see isprivateattribute(o1,"name") + nl +
isprivateattribute(o1,"address") + nl +
isprivateattribute(o1,"phone") + nl +
isprivateattribute(o1,"job") + nl +
isprivateattribute(o1,"salary")
Class Person
name address phone
private
job salary
Output:
0

We can test if the object class contains a method or not using the ismethod() function
Syntax:
ismethod(object,cMethodName) --> Returns True if the object class contains the method
Example:
o1 = new point
mylist = []
mylist + new point
class point x y z
func print
see x + nl + y + nl + z + nl
We can test if the object class contains a private method or not using the isprivatemethod() function
Syntax:
Example:
o1 = new Test
see isprivatemethod(o1,"f1") + nl +
isprivatemethod(o1,"f2")
Class Test
func f1
see "message from f1()" + nl
private
func f2
see "message from f2()" + nl
Output:
0
1
We can add an attribute (or a group of attributes) to the object state (not the class) using the addattribute() function
Syntax:
AddAttribute(object,cAttributeName|aAttributesList)
Example(1):
see new point {x=10 y=20 z=30}
Class Point
AddAttribute(self,["x","y","z"])
Example(2):
o1 = new point
addattribute(o1,"x")
addattribute(o1,"y")
addattribute(o1,"z")
see o1 {x=10 y=20 z=30}
class point
Output:
x: 10.000000
y: 20.000000
z: 30.000000
We can add a method to the object class using the addmethod() function This method can be used with any object from
the same class.
Syntax:
AddMethod(Object,cNewMethodName,cMethodName|AnonymousFunction)
Example:
o1 = new point { x=10 y=20 z=30 }
o1.print()
Class point
x y z
Output:
10
20
30
Instead of using anonymous function to add new method to the class, we can use the function name
Example:
o1 = new point { x=10 y=20 z=30 }
addmethod(o1,"print", myfunc )
addmethod(o1,"display", myfunc )
addmethod(o1,"show", myfunc )
o1.print()
o1.display()
o1.show()
Class point
x y z
Output:
10
20
30
10
20
30
10
20
30
Since we add the method to the class, any object from that class can use this method
Example:
o1 = new point { x=10 y=20 z=30 }
o2 = new point { x=100 y=200 z=300 }
o3 = new point { x=50 y=150 z=250 }
o1.print()
o2.print()
o3.print()
Class point
x y z
Output:
10
20
30
100
200
300
50
150
250
We can get the object attribute value using the getattribute() function
Syntax:
GetAttribute(oObject,cAttributeName) ---> Attribute Value
Example:
o1 = new point
see getattribute(o1,"name") + nl +
getattribute(o1,"x") + nl +
getattribute(o1,"y") + nl +
getattribute(o1,"z") + nl
Class Point
x=10 y=20 z=30
name = "3D-Point"
Output:
3D-Point
10
20
30
Example:
We can Find a Class List Member using GetAttribute() using a function findclass() The Find uses the member name,
rather than the column number
myList =
[new Company {position=3 name="Mahmoud" symbol="MHD"},
new Company {position=2 name="Bert" symbol="BRT"},
new Company {position=1 name="Ring" symbol="RNG"}
]
see myList
see nl +"=====================" + nl + nl
for i = 1 to len(myList)
see "Pos: "+ i +" | "+ myList[i].position +" | "+ myList[i].name +
" | "+ myList[i].symbol +" | "+ nl
next
See findclass(myList, "MHD", "symbol") +nl ### Specify Member class name
###---------------------------------------
for i = 1 to len(classList)
result = getattribute( classList[i], classMember )
###--------------------------------------
Output:
Pos: 1 | 3 | Mahmoud | MHD |
Pos: 2 | 2 | Bert | BRT |
Pos: 3 | 1 | Ring | RNG |
FindClass: MHD
Result-Attr: 1 MHD
Result-Attr: 2 BRT
Result-Attr: 3 RNG
We can set the object attribute value using the setattribute() function
Syntax:
SetAttribute(oObject,cAttributeName,Value)
Example:
o1 = new person
setattribute(o1,"cName","Mahmoud")
setattribute(o1,"nSalary",1000000)
setattribute(o1,"aColors",["white","blue","yellow"])
see o1
see o1.aColors
Class Person
cName
nSalary
aColors
Output:
cname: Mahmoud
nsalary: 1000000.000000
acolors: List...
white
blue
yellow
We can share methods between classes without inheritance using the MergeMethods() function
This function merge class methods to another class.
Syntax:
MergeMethods(cClassNameDestination,cClassNameSource)
Example:
mergemethods("count","share")
mergemethods("count2","share")
Class Share
func one
see "one" + nl
func two
see "two" + nl
func three
see "three" + nl
Class Display
Func printline
see copy("*",20) + nl
Output:
********************
one
two
three
********************
three
two
one
********************
We can know the package name of the latest sucessful import command using the packagename() function
Syntax:
packagename() --> Returns the package name of the latest sucessful import
Example:
load "weblib.ring"
import System.web
see packagename() # system.web
FORTYTWO
STDLIB FUNCTIONS
Example:
Load "stdlib.ring"
Puts("Hello, World!")
Example:
print("\nHello, World\n\nHow are you? \t\t I'm fine!\n")
x=10 y=20
print("\nx value = #{x} , y value = #{y} \n")
Syntax:
303

world = "World!"
mystring = print2str("Hello, #{world} \nIn Year \n#{2000+17} \n")
see mystring + nl
Output:
Hello, World!
In Year
2017
