NET.invokeGenericMethod

Invoke generic method of object

Syntax

outargs = NET.invokeGenericMethod(obj,genericMethodName,paramTypes)

outargs = NET.invokeGenericMethod(obj,genericMethodName,paramTypes,args)

Description

outargs = NET.invokeGenericMethod(obj,genericMethodName,paramTypes) calls instance or static generic method genericMethodName.

To display generic methods in MATLAB^®, see the example Display .NET Generic Methods Using Reflection.

outargs = NET.invokeGenericMethod(obj,genericMethodName,paramTypes,args) calls generic method with specified input arguments.

Examples

Call Generic Method

Call a generic method that takes two parameterized types and returns a parameterized type.

Assume that you have myGenericSwapMethod and it takes input arguments 5 and 6.

a = NET.invokeGenericMethod(obj,...
    'myGenericSwapMethod',... 
    {'System.Double','System.Double'},...
    5,6);

Input Arguments

obj — Object type

class | string | character vector | NET.GenericClass

Object type, specified as:

• Object of a class containing the generic method.

• If calling a static generic method, a string or a character vector with a fully qualified class name.

• If calling a static generic method of a generic class, a NET.GenericClass object.

genericMethodName — Generic method name

string | character vector

Generic method name, specified as a string or a character vector.

paramTypes — Generic method parameterization type

string | character vector | NET.GenericClass

Generic method parameterization type, specified as a variable length cell vector (1 to N), where the allowed cell types are:

• String or character vector with fully qualified parameter type name.

• If using nested parameterization with another parameterized type, NET.GenericClass object.

args — Input arguments

valid argument types

Input arguments, specified as valid argument types. args is a variable length (0 to N) list of arguments matching the arguments to the .NET generic method genericMethodName

Output Arguments

outargs — Output arguments

valid argument types

Output arguments, returned as valid argument types. outargs is a variable length (0 to N) list of arguments matching the arguments from the .NET generic method genericMethodName.
