LSPFunction Class¶

class localsolver.modeler.LSPFunction¶

A function can be either a user-defined function or a built-in function. It is possible to create external functions from the modeler API and call them in the modeler. See LSPFunctor for more information on how to create external functions.

Summary¶

Methods¶
`GetDeclaredName`	Gets the name of the function.
`Call`	Calls the function with no argument and returns the result.
`AsValue`	Gets the function as an LSPValue.
`Dispose`	Releases the reference.

Instance methods¶

string GetDeclaredName()¶

Gets the name of the function. The name of the function does not necessarily reflect the name of the variable(s) to which the function is associated. The name is mainly used to identify the function in stack traces when exceptions occur.

Returns:: Name of the function.
Return type:: string

LSPValue Call()¶

Calls the function with no argument and returns the result.

Returns:: Return value of the call.
Return type:: LSPValue

LSPValue Call(params LSPValue[] arguments)

LSPValue Call(List<LSPValue> arguments)

Calls the function with the provided arguments and returns the result.

Arguments:: arguments – List of arguments.
Returns:: Return value of the call.
Return type:: LSPValue

LSPValue AsValue()¶

Gets the function as an LSPValue.

Return type:: LSPValue

void Dispose()¶

Releases the reference. If this function was already released, returns immediately and does nothing. Invoking any method on this object after this operation will throw an exception.

Note: Releasing a reference does not necessarily imply that the underlying function object is destroyed. It is only destroyed if no more references point to it.
