C# Class CSE.Exps.TypeExp

Used to parse type expressions

Public Methods

Method	Description
CacheCommonTypes ( ) : void	Caches common types for fast lookup
GetType ( string typeData ) : Type	Converts string parameter containing type into an actual type
GetTypeObj ( object typeData ) : Type	Gets type information from object. If object is already a type, object is casted as a type and returned, if not, GetType is called.
TypeAssignMatch ( Type type, dynamic value ) : bool	Heuristic attempt to ensure value given can be coerced into type given. Useful for temporary variable assignments. Doesn't work for most cases. Needs more work

Caches common types for fast lookup

public static CacheCommonTypes ( ) : void
return	void

Converts string parameter containing type into an actual type

public static GetType ( string typeData ) : Type
typeData	string	String containing type
return	System.Type

Gets type information from object. If object is already a type, object is casted as a type and returned, if not, GetType is called.

public static GetTypeObj ( object typeData ) : Type
typeData	object	Object to get the type of
return	System.Type

Heuristic attempt to ensure value given can be coerced into type given. Useful for temporary variable assignments.

Doesn't work for most cases. Needs more work

public static TypeAssignMatch ( Type type, dynamic value ) : bool
type	System.Type	Type to attempt to coerce value to
value	dynamic	Value to coerce
return	bool
