Typedef Documentation

using rttr::string_view = typedef basic_string_view<char>

A class to hold a reference to a continuous sequence of char objects.

Enumeration Type Documentation

enum rttr::access_levels
strong

The access_levels enum represents the three access modifiers, which can be used in classes to encapsulate members access.

In contrast to the three static type values in the registration class, represents this enum the return value to retrieve the access level at runtime.

See also
method::get_access_level(), property::get_access_level(), constructor::get_access_level()
Enumerator
public_access 

Declares that this member was registered with public access.

protected_access 

Declares that this member was registered with protected access.

private_access 

Declares that this member was registered with private access.

enum rttr::filter_item
strong

The filter_item enum is used to filter the search for certain members in types.

Combine the enum value together with the bitwise OR operator.

Remarks
In order to get a return, you must specify filter_item::instance_item or filter_item::static_item along with an accessor filter_item::public_access or filter_item::non_public_access.
See also
type::get_properties(filter_items) const
Enumerator
instance_item 

Includes all members in the search, which needs an instance to be invoked.

static_item 

Includes all static members in the search.

Static members doesn't need any instance for invoking.

public_access 

Includes all public specified members in the search.

See also
access_levels
non_public_access 

Includes all non public (private or protected) members in the search.

See also
access_levels
declared_only 

Returns all members declared for the current type; inherited members are not returned.

Function Documentation

template<typename... TArgs>
detail::default_args<TArgs...> rttr::default_arguments ( TArgs &&...  args)

The default_arguments function should be used add default arguments, for constructors or a methods during the registration process of reflection information.

Use it in the () operator of the returned bind object.

The given arguments must match the signature from the starting position to the right most argument.

See following example code:

void my_function(int a, bool b, const std::string& text);
{
using namespace rttr;
registration::method("my_function", &my_function)
(
default_arguments(true, std::string("default text"))
);
// however setting default arguments like this, will raise a compile time error
registration::method("my_function2", &my_function)
(
default_arguments(true) // does not work!!!; default value for the last argument is missing...
);
}
detail::metadata rttr::metadata ( variant  key,
variant  value 
)

The metadata function can be used to add additional meta data information during the registration process of reflection information.

Use it in the () operator of the returned bind object.

template<typename Target_Type , typename Source_Type >
Target_Type rttr::rttr_cast ( Source_Type  object)
noexcept

Casts the given object of type Source_Type to an object of type Target_Type.

Remarks
Both class types must contain the macro RTTR_ENABLE in the class declaration. Source_Type and Target_Type must be both pointer types.
Returns
A pointer of type Target_Type
template<typename ClassType , typename ReturnType , typename... Args>
auto rttr::select_const ( ReturnType(ClassType::*)(Args...) const  func) -> decltype(func)

This is a helper function to register overloaded const member functions.

Use it like following:

#include <rttr/registration>
using namespace rttr;
struct Foo
{
void func() {}
void func() const {}
};
{
.method("func", select_non_const(&Foo::func))
.method("func", select_const(&Foo::func));
}
Remarks
The method cannot be used with MSVC x86 compiler, because of the different calling convention for global- and member-functions. As workaround you have to explicitly cast to the member function pointer:
{
registration::class_<Foo>("Foo")
.method("func", static_cast<void(Foo::*)()>(&Foo::func))
.method("func", static_cast<void(Foo::*)()const>(&Foo::func));
}
template<typename ClassType , typename ReturnType , typename... Args>

}
template<typename Enum_Type >
detail::enum_data<Enum_Type> rttr::value ( string_view  ,

Extracting a value type, which is not stored in the variant, leads to undefined behaviour. No exception or error code will be returned!
template<class T >
T rttr::variant_cast ( variant operand)

Returns a reference to the containing value as type T.

variant var = std::string("hello world");
std::string& value_ref = variant_cast<std::string&>(var); // extracts the value by reference
std::string value = variant_cast<std::string>(var); // copies the value
Remarks
Extracting a value type, which is not stored in the variant, leads to undefined behaviour. No exception or error code will be returned!
template<class T >
T rttr::variant_cast ( variant &&  operand)

Move the containing value from the variant into a type T.

variant var = std::string("hello world");
std::string& a = variant_cast<std::string&>(var);
std::string b = variant_cast<std::string>(std::move(var)); // move the value to 'b'
std::cout << "a: " << a << std::endl; // is now empty (nothing to print)
std::cout << "b: " << b << std::endl; // prints "hello world"
Remarks
Extracting a value type, which is not stored in the variant, leads to undefined behaviour. No exception or error code will be returned!
template<class T >
const T* rttr::variant_cast ( const variant operand)
noexcept

Returns a pointer to the containing value with type T.

When the containing value is of type T, a valid pointer to the type will be returned. Otherwise a nullptr is returned.

variant var = std::string("hello world");
std:string* a = variant_cast<std::string>(&var); // performs an internal type check and returns the value by reference
int* b = variant_cast<int>(&var);
std::cout << "a valid: " << a != nullptr << std::endl; // prints "1"
std::cout << "b valid: " << b != nullptr << std::endl; // prints "0"
Returns
A valid pointer, when the containing type is of type T; otherwise a nullptr.
template<class T >
T* rttr::variant_cast ( variant operand)
noexcept

Returns a pointer to the containing value with type T.

When the containing value is of type T, a valid pointer to the type will be returned. Otherwise a nullptr is returned.

variant var = std::string("hello world");
std:string* a = variant_cast<std::string>(&var); // performs an internal type check and returns the value by reference
int* b = variant_cast<int>(&var);
std::cout << "a valid: " << a != nullptr << std::endl; // prints "1"
std::cout << "b valid: " << b != nullptr << std::endl; // prints "0"
Returns
A valid pointer, when the containing type is of type T; otherwise a nullptr.
