    • FunctionDefinitionDataType

      public FunctionDefinitionDataType(Function function, boolean formalSignature)
      Create a Function Definition based on a Function
      Parameters:
      function - the function to use to create a Function Signature.
      formalSignature - if true only original formal types will be retained and auto-params discarded (e.g., this, __return_storage_ptr__, etc.). If false, the effective signature will be used where forced indirect and auto-params are reflected in the signature. This option has no affect if the specified function has custom storage enabled.

    • getGenericCallingConvention

      public GenericCallingConvention getGenericCallingConvention()
      Description copied from interface: FunctionSignature
      Returns the generic calling convention associated with this function definition. The "unknown" convention should be returned instead of null.
      Specified by:
      getGenericCallingConvention in interface FunctionSignature
    • copy

      public DataType copy(DataTypeManager dtm)
      Description copied from interface: DataType
      Returns a new instance (shallow copy) of this DataType with a new identity and no source archive association.

      Any reference to other datatypes will use DataType.clone(DataTypeManager).

      Specified by:
      copy in interface DataType
      Parameters:
      dtm - the data-type manager instance whose data-organization should apply.
      Returns:
      new instanceof of this datatype
    • clone

      public DataType clone(DataTypeManager dtm)
      Description copied from interface: DataType
      Returns an instance of this DataType using the specified DataTypeManager to allow its use of the corresponding DataOrganization while retaining its unique identity (see DataType.getUniversalID() and archive association (see DataType.getSourceArchive()) if applicable.

      This instance will be returned if this datatype's DataTypeManager matches the specified dtm. The recursion depth of a clone will stop on any datatype whose DataTypeManager matches the specified dtm and simply use the existing datatype instance.

      NOTE: In general, this method should not be used to obtain an instance to be modified. In most cases changes shuold be made directly to this instance if supported or to a DataType.copy(DataTypeManager).

      Specified by:
      clone in interface DataType
      Parameters:
      dtm - the data-type manager instance whose data-organization should apply.
      Returns:
      cloned instance which may be the same as this instance

    • getLength

      public int getLength()
      Description copied from interface: DataType
      Get the length (number of 8-bit bytes) of this DataType.

      NOTE: No datatype should ever return 0, even if DataType.isZeroLength(), and only Dynamic datatypes should return -1. If DataType.isZeroLength() is true a length of 1 should be returned. Where a zero-length datatype can be handled (e.g., Composite) the DataType.isZeroLength() method should be used.

      getLength in interface DataType
      Returns:
      the length of this DataType
