class os_array_type : public os_typeThis class is part of the ObjectStore metaobject protocol, which provides access to ObjectStore schemas. An instance of this class represents a C++ array type. This class is derived from os_type.
The types os_int32 and os_boolean, used throughout this manual, are each defined as a signed 32-bit integer type. The type os_unsigned_int32 is defined as an unsigned 32-bit integer type.
Programs using this class must include <ostore/ostore.hh>, followed by <ostore/coll.hh> (if used), followed by <ostore/mop.hh>.
static os_array_type &create(
os_unsigned_int32 number_of_elements,
os_type *element_type
);
Creates an array type with the specified number of elements and the specified element type.
const os_type &get_element_type() const;Returns the type of element contained in instances of the specified array type.
os_type &get_element_type();Returns the type of element contained in instances of the specified array type.
os_unsigned_int32 get_number_of_elements() const;Returns the number of elements associated with the specified array type. If the number is not known, 0 is returned.
void set_element_type(os_type &);Specifies the type of element contained in instances of the specified array type.
void set_number_of_elements(os_unsigned_int32);Specifies the number of elements associated with the specified array type.
