os_template::Function
This enumerator is a possible return value from os_template::get_kind(), indicating a function template. os_template::get_args()
os_List<const os_template_formal_arg*> get_args() const;Returns a list (in declaration order) of the formal arguments of the specified template. Each element of the list is a pointer to a const os_template_formal_arg.
enum os_template_kind { Type, Function } ;
os_template_kind get_kind() const;
Returns an enumerator indicating whether the specified template is a type template or a function template. The possible return values are os_template::Type and os_template::Function.
os_boolean is_unspecified() const;Returns nonzero (that is, true) if and only if the specified os_template is the unspecified template. Some os_template-valued attributes in the metaobject protocol are required to have values in a consistent schema, but might lack values in the transient schema, before schema installation or evolution is performed. The get function for such an attribute returns a reference to an os_template. The fact that a reference rather than pointer is returned indicates that the value is required in a consistent schema. In the transient schema, if such an attribute lacks a value (because you have not yet specified it), the get function returns the unspecified template. This is the only os_template for which is_unspecified() returns nonzero.
operator const os_type_template&() const;Provides for safe conversion to const os_type_template. If the specified os_template is not an os_type_template, err_mop_illegal_cast is signaled.
operator os_type_template&();Provides for safe conversion to os_type_template. If the specified os_template is not an os_type_template, err_mop_illegal_cast is signaled.
void set_args(os_List<os_template_formal_arg*>&);Specifies the list (in declaration order) of the formal arguments of the specified template. Each element of the list is a pointer to an os_template_formal_arg.
