Fields

_ty

reflect.Type

The wrapped type value. Private by invariant: reflection natives are its only readers, and each kind method panics if the held type no longer classifies as this view's kind.

Instance methods

function

fields

(self) -> reflect.class.Field[] throws never

The class's fields, in declaration order. Ownerless: these describe the type, so Field.value on them returns null.

function

meta

(self) -> reflect.Meta throws never

The class declaration's own schema metadata.

Implementations

reflect.AnyClass for T

Instance methods

function

attributes

(self) -> reflect.Meta throws never

The class declaration's schema metadata, or empty metadata when the runtime type is not a class.

function

get

<T>(self, name: string) -> T | null throws reflect.errors.TypeMismatch

Read a field as T. A missing field returns null; use has_field to distinguish that case from a present field whose value is null.

function

get_field

(self, name: string) -> reflect.class.Field | null throws never

Return a value-bound field handle, or null when no such field exists.

function

has_field

(self, name: string) -> bool throws never

Whether this value's runtime class declares a field called name. false when the runtime type is not a class.

function

list_fields

(self) -> reflect.class.Field[] throws never

Reflected fields bound to this value for Field.value<T>().

function

name

(self) -> string throws never

The rendered name of this value's concrete runtime type.

function

type

(self) -> reflect.Type throws never

This value's concrete runtime type.
