The nsjava::info Command
Usage:
- nsjava::info option ?arg arg ...?
The nsjava::info command provides introspection for Java classes,
objects, and Beans. The valid options for this command are:
- class javaObj
-
Returns the class name of the specified Java object.
- events objOrClass
-
Returns a list of the fully-qualified names of all the event
interfaces of the Java class or object. The events of a Java class are
determined by the JavaBean design patterns. Usually, if a Java class
has the methods addXXXListener and
removeXXXListener and XXX is the name of an
interface, then XXX is considered as an event interface of the
Java class.
- baseclass objOrClass
-
Returns the base class name of the specified class or Java object.
For example, the base class of a Java array object of type
String[][][] is java.lang.String. If the class or Java object is not
an array, the base class is the same as the class.
- dimensions objOrClass
-
Returns the number of dimensions of the specified array class or Java
array object. If the class or Java object is not an array, the number
of dimensions is 0.
- fields ?-type? ?-static? objOrClass
-
Returns a list of fieldSignatures of public fields of the specified
class or Java object (see SIGNATURE below). For shadowed superclass
fields, the fieldSignature is full. For all other fields, the
fieldSignature is simple. If the ?-type? flag is used, then
each element of the result list is a pair containing the data type and
fieldSignature. If the -static flag is used, only static fields
will appear in the result list. Otherwise, only non-static fields
will appear in the result list.
- methods ?-type? ?-static? objOrClass
-
Returns a list that describes all methods of the specified class or
Java object. If -type is not used, each element in the list is
the full signature of a method. If -type is used, each element
in the list is in turn a list in the form {type sig exceptions},
where type is the method's return type, sig is the
method's full signature, and exceptions is a list of the
fully-qualified names of all the checked exceptions that can be thrown
by this method. If the method does not throw exceptions,
exceptions is the empty list. If the -static flag is used,
only static methods will appear in the result list. Otherwise, only
non-static methods will appear in the result list.
- constructors objOrClass
-
Returns a list of the full signatures of constructors of the specified
class or Java object.
- properties objOrClass ?-type?
-
Returns a list of the names of Java Bean properties of the specified
class or Java object. If the ?-type? flag is used, then each
element of the result list is a pair containing the data type and name
of the property.
- superclass objOrClass
-
Returns the name of the immediate superclass of the specified Java
object or class. If objOrClass is an instance of
java.lang.Object, then the empty string is returned.
