Public Instance Methods

WIN32OLE_PARAM#default click to toggle source

Returns default value. If the default value does not exist, this method returns nil.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'Workbook')
method = WIN32OLE_METHOD.new(tobj, 'SaveAs')
method.params.each do |param|
  if param.default
    puts "#{param.name} (= #{param.default})"
  else
    puts "#{param}"
  end
end

The above script result is following:
    Filename
    FileFormat
    Password
    WriteResPassword
    ReadOnlyRecommended
    CreateBackup
    AccessMode (= 1)
    ConflictResolution
    AddToMru
    TextCodepage
    TextVisualLayout

 
               static VALUE foleparam_default(VALUE self)
{
    struct oleparamdata *pparam;
    Data_Get_Struct(self, struct oleparamdata, pparam);
    return ole_param_default(pparam->pTypeInfo, pparam->method_index,
                             pparam->index);
}

WIN32OLE_PARAM#input? click to toggle source

Returns true if the parameter is input.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'Workbook')
method = WIN32OLE_METHOD.new(tobj, 'SaveAs')

                               pparam->index, PARAMFLAG_FIN);
}

WIN32OLE_PARAM#inspect → String click to toggle source

Returns the parameter name with class name. If the parameter has default value, then returns name=value string with class name.

 
               static VALUE
foleparam_inspect(VALUE self)
{
    VALUE detail = foleparam_name(self);
    VALUE defval = foleparam_default(self);
    if (defval != Qnil) {
        rb_str_cat2(detail, "=");
        rb_str_concat(detail, rb_funcall(defval, rb_intern("inspect"), 0));
    }
    return make_inspect("WIN32OLE_PARAM", detail);
}

WIN32OLE_PARAM#name click to toggle source

Returns name.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'Workbook')
method = WIN32OLE_METHOD.new(tobj, 'SaveAs')
param1 = method.params[0]
puts param1.name # => Filename

 
               static VALUE
foleparam_name(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_ivar_get(self, rb_intern("name"));
}
