xtd::object Class Reference

#include <object.h>

Definition

Supports all classes in the xtd class hierarchy and provides low-level services to derived classes. This is the ultimate base class of all classes in the xtd. It is the root of the type hierarchy.

Namespace

xtd

Library

xtd.core

Examples

The following example defines a point type derived from the Oobject class and virtuals many of the virtual methods of the object class. In addition, the example shows how to call many of the static and instance methods of the object class.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

object()

xtd::object::object ( )

default

Create a new instance of the ultimate base class object.

Remarks

This constructor is called by constructors in derived classes, but it can also be used to directly create an instance of the object class.

Member Function Documentation

equals() [1/2]

virtual bool xtd::object::equals ( const object &  obj ) const

virtualnoexcept

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

Parameters

obj	The object to compare with the current object.

Returns

true if the specified object is equal to the current object. otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example compares the current instance with another object.

Reimplemented in xtd::guid, and xtd::net::ip_address.

equals() [2/2]

static bool xtd::object::equals ( const object &  object_a, const object &  object_b  )

staticnoexcept

Determines whether the specified object instances are considered equal.

Parameters

object_a	The first object to compare.
object_b	The second object to compare.

Returns

true if object_a is the same instance as object_b or if both are null references or if object_a(object_b) returns true. otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example compares different objects.

get_hash_code()

virtual size_t xtd::object::get_hash_code ( ) const

virtualnoexcept

Serves as a hash function for a particular type.

Returns

size_t A hash code for the current object.

Reimplemented in xtd::ustring.

memberwise_clone()

template<typename object_t >

std::unique_ptr<object_t> xtd::object::memberwise_clone ( ) const

inline

Gets the type of the current instance.

Returns

The type instance that represents the exact runtime type of the current instance.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates that GetType returns the runtime type of the current instance.

Creates a shallow copy of the current object.

Returns

A shallow copy of the current object.

Examples

The following code example shows how to copy an instance of a class using memberwise_clone.

reference_equals()

static bool xtd::object::reference_equals ( const object &  object_a, const object &  object_b  )

staticnoexcept

Determines whether the specified object instances are the same instance.

Parameters

object_a	The first object to compare.
object_b	The second object to compare.

Returns

true if object_a is the same instance as object_b or if both are null references; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example uses reference_equals to determine if two objects are the same instance.

to_string()

virtual xtd::ustring xtd::object::to_string ( ) const

virtualnoexcept

Returns a std::string that represents the current object.

Returns

A string that represents the current object.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates what to_string returns.
