Example Vector defmethod 008

 

 

Description

This example calls the defmethod function where the method appendString is implemented for the Vector type. The method appendString is invoked by calling the method name in the Methods Dictionary.

 

Details

The method, appendString is defined for the Vector type.

(defmethod Vector: appendStrings (s) (apply append s)) Returns: #<Dictionary 12345>

Define a Vector that contains a set of Strings.

(define Mary #("Mary " "had " "a " "little " "lamb ") ) Returns: #<Vector 123456>

Invoke the method named appendStrings to append all the values in the Vector named Mary.

(send appendStrings: Mary) Returns: Mary had a little lamb

The method can be invoked simply by name.

(appendStrings: Mary) Returns: Mary had a little lamb

Notes and Hints

To view the entry in the methods Dictionary created by the defMethod function

#<Dictionary 123456>[msgName:] or

(display (methodsOf Vector: )) Returns: #{dic| appendString #<Lambda 123456>}

If the method Name is unknown, it is possible to reference the nth name from the dictionary:

(ref (methodsOf Vector: ) n 0)

or

#<Dictionary 123456[n 0]
