mixed
__call(string $method, array $arguments)

Attempts to locate and call a method dynamically added to a class at runtime if a default cannot be located

protected
defineMethods()

Adds any methods from Extension instances attached to this object.

protected
registerExtraMethodCallback(string $name, callable $callback)

Register an callback to invoke that defines extra methods

public
bool
hasMethod(string $method)

Return TRUE if a method exists on this object

protected
array
getExtraMethodConfig(string $method)

Get meta-data details on a named method

public
array
allMethodNames(bool $custom = false)

protected
addMethodsFrom(string $property, string|int $index = null)

Add all the methods from an object property (which is an Extension) to this object.

protected
removeMethodsFrom(string $property, string|int $index = null)

Add all the methods from an object property (which is an Extension) to this object.

protected
addWrapperMethod(string $method, string $wrap)

Add a wrapper method - a method which points to another method with a different name. For example, Thumbnail(x) can be wrapped to generateThumbnail(x)

protected
addCallbackMethod(string $method, callable $callback)

Add callback as a method.

Details

mixed __call(string $method, array $arguments)

Attempts to locate and call a method dynamically added to a class at runtime if a default cannot be located

You can add extra methods to a class using Extensions}, {@link Object::createMethod() or Object::addWrapperMethod()

Parameters

string $method
array $arguments

Return Value

mixed

Exceptions

BadMethodCallException

protected defineMethods()

Adds any methods from Extension instances attached to this object.

All these methods can then be called directly on the instance (transparently mapped through __call()}), or called explicitly through {@link extend().

protected registerExtraMethodCallback(string $name, callable $callback)

Register an callback to invoke that defines extra methods

Parameters

string $name
callable $callback

bool hasMethod(string $method)

Return TRUE if a method exists on this object

This should be used rather than PHP's inbuild method_exists() as it takes into account methods added via extensions

Parameters

string $method

Return Value

bool

protected array getExtraMethodConfig(string $method)

Get meta-data details on a named method

Parameters

string $method

Return Value

array

List of custom method details, if defined for this method

array allMethodNames(bool $custom = false)

Return the names of all the methods available on this object

Parameters

bool $custom

include methods added dynamically at runtime

Return Value

array

protected array findMethodsFromExtension(object $extension) deprecated

deprecated 4.13.0 Will be replaced by findMethodsFrom() in CMS 5

No description

Parameters

object $extension

Return Value

array

protected addMethodsFrom(string $property, string|int $index = null)

Add all the methods from an object property (which is an Extension) to this object.

Parameters

string $property

string|int $index

an index to use if the property is an array

Exceptions

protected removeMethodsFrom(string $property, string|int $index = null)

Add all the methods from an object property (which is an Extension) to this object.

Parameters
