Class JCAssembly

java.lang.Object

org.mases.jcobridge.JCHandler

org.mases.jcobridge.JCAssembly

public final class JCAssembly
extends JCHandler

JVM-side handle for a loaded CLR assembly.

JCAssembly wraps a native reference to a CLR System.Reflection.Assembly and exposes type resolution against that assembly. Instances are obtained exclusively via JCOBridge.AddReference(String) and must not be constructed directly.

Once an assembly handle is available, use GetType(String) to resolve CLR types by their fully qualified name. The resolved JCType can then be used to instantiate objects or invoke static members.

Since:

1.0.0.0

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
JCType	GetType(String typeName) Resolves a CLR type by its fully qualified name within this assembly and returns a handle to it.
int	hashCode() Returns the hash code of the underlying CLR assembly by delegating to the CLR GetHashCode method.

Method Detail

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns the hash code of the underlying CLR assembly by delegating to the CLR GetHashCode method.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

the CLR hash code.

toString

public String toString()

Returns the string representation of the underlying CLR assembly by delegating to the CLR ToString method. Typically returns the assembly full name, e.g. "MyAssembly, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null".

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

the CLR string representation of this assembly.

GetType

public JCType GetType(String typeName)
               throws JCNativeException

Resolves a CLR type by its fully qualified name within this assembly and returns a handle to it. The type name follows standard .NET conventions, e.g. "MyNamespace.MyClass" or "MyNamespace.MyClass`1" for generics.

Parameters:

typeName - the fully qualified CLR type name to resolve.

Returns:

a JCType handle to the resolved type.

Throws:

JCNativeException - if the type cannot be found in this assembly or the resolution fails within the CLR context.
