      org.jruby.internal.runtime.methods.UndefinedMethod

public class UndefinedMethod
extends DynamicMethod

This class represents a singleton type of method used as a marker for missing or "undef'ed" methods. Only one instance is ever created, and it can't be invoked.

Method Summary

IRubyObject	call(ThreadContext context, IRubyObject self, RubyModule klazz, java.lang.String name, IRubyObject[] args, Block block) The one implementation of call, which throws an exception because UndefinedMethod can't be invoked.
DynamicMethod	dup() A dummy implementation of dup that just returns the singleton instance.
static UndefinedMethod	getInstance() Retrieve the singleton instance.
boolean	isCallableFrom(IRubyObject caller, CallType callType) UndefinedMethod is always visible because it's only used as a marker for missing or undef'ed methods.
void	setCallConfig(CallConfiguration callConfig) Dummy implementation of setCallConfig that does nothing.
void	setImplementationClass(RubyModule implClass) Dummy override of setImplementationClass that does nothing.
void	setVisibility(Visibility visibility) Dummy implementation of setVisibility that does nothing.

Method Detail

call

public IRubyObject call(ThreadContext context,
                        IRubyObject self,
                        RubyModule klazz,
                        java.lang.String name,
                        IRubyObject[] args,
                        Block block)

The one implementation of call, which throws an exception because UndefinedMethod can't be invoked.

Specified by:

call in class DynamicMethod

Parameters:

context - The thread context for the currently executing thread

self - The 'self' or 'receiver' object to use for this call

name - The incoming name used to invoke this method

args - The argument list to this invocation

block - The block passed to this invocation

Returns:

The result of the call

dup

public DynamicMethod dup()

A dummy implementation of dup that just returns the singleton instance.

Specified by:

dup in class DynamicMethod

Returns:

The singleton instance

getInstance

public static UndefinedMethod getInstance()

Retrieve the singleton instance.

Returns:

The singleton instance

setImplementationClass

public void setImplementationClass(RubyModule implClass)

Dummy override of setImplementationClass that does nothing.

Overrides:

setImplementationClass in class DynamicMethod

Parameters:

implClass - Ignored

setVisibility

public void setVisibility(Visibility visibility)

Dummy implementation of setVisibility that does nothing.

Overrides:

setVisibility in class DynamicMethod

Parameters:

visibility - Ignored

setCallConfig

public void setCallConfig(CallConfiguration callConfig)

Dummy implementation of setCallConfig that does nothing.

Overrides:

setCallConfig in class DynamicMethod

Parameters:

callConfig - Ignored

isCallableFrom

public boolean isCallableFrom(IRubyObject caller,
                              CallType callType)

Overrides:

isCallableFrom in class DynamicMethod

Parameters:

caller - The calling object

callType - The type of call

Returns:

true always
