Hello everyone,
I'm working on porting a java library in D, and I stuck on a
class because it works with the reflection.
From what I've read on prowiki
(http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?LanguagesVersusD), D
can not do reflection, it is limited to the Run-Time Type
Information (RTTI ) (http://dlang.org/traits.html).
Here is the piece of code that blocks me:
static {
Class clazz = this.class;
auto accessible2Args = new Callback(clazz,
"accessibleProc", 2);
auto proc2Args = accessible2Args.getAddress();
if (proc2Args === 0) {
(...)
}
(...)
}
I am looking for a workaround that I have not found yet.
If someone an idea on the subject, I'm interested.
Thank you to you.
You can generate reflection data at compile-time to use at
runtime.
For an example, you can take a look at
https://shardsoft.com/stash/projects/SHARD/repos/shardtools/browse/source/ShardTools/Reflection.d
(docs: https://shardsoft.com/docs/ShardTools/Reflection.html).
I
wouldn't use the file/repo directly, but feel free to take
anything you find useful from it.
I think something like this should be included in phobos
Thank you all for your responses and responsiveness.
Indeed, John Colvin, I did not know what forum posted this. The
next time I would do in D.learn, sorry for this mistake.
Many of your proposal works perfectly. I can continue porting my
library.
