Method Detail

setCallingConvention

public final void setCallingConvention(byte callingConvention)

Sets calling convention for this function. This setting is remembered in the current Function object only - it is not mapped to the function name. Most of the time users do not need to use this method.

getCallingConvention

public byte getCallingConvention()

Returns calling convention used for calling this function. This method does not return the DEFAULT_CALLING_CONVENTION value.

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

Returns function name.

invoke

public long invoke(Parameter returnValue,
                   Parameter[] parameters)
            throws FunctionExecutionException

Invokes the function with the passed parameters. A type of the return value and parameter types should correspond to types of the native code function.

Parameters:

returnValue - reference to return value

parameters - array of parameters of called function

Returns:

Last error code. NOTE: For Windows platform only. For all other platforms the result is 0.

Throws:

FunctionExecutionException

invoke

public final long invoke(Parameter returnValue)
                  throws FunctionExecutionException

Convenience method for calling a native function without parameters.

Returns:

Last error code. NOTE: For Windows platform only. For all other platforms the result is 0.

Throws:

FunctionExecutionException

                        Parameter[] parameters)
                 throws FunctionExecutionException

Invokes the specified function from a specified native library. A type of the return value and parameter types should correspond to types of the native code function.

Since this method creates instances of Library and Function, it should be used when the number of calls is minimal.

Parameters:

libraryName - filename of the library containing a called function

functionName - name of the called function

returnValue - reference to a return value

parameters - array of parameters of the called function

Returns:

Last error code. NOTE: For Windows platform only. For all other platforms the result is 0.

Throws:

FunctionExecutionException

                       throws FunctionExecutionException

Convenience method that invokes a native code function, which has no parameters.

Returns:

Last error code. NOTE: For Windows platform only. For all other platforms the result is 0.
