Class AnyObject

java.lang.Object

com.aldebaran.qi.AnyObject

All Implemented Interfaces:

Comparable<AnyObject>

public class AnyObject
extends Object
implements Comparable<AnyObject>

Class that provides type erasure on objects. It represents an object (understandable by the messaging layer) that has shared semantics and that can contain methods, signals and properties.

This class is typically used in Session when retrieving a remote service by its name. The service itself is not retrieved, but a reference to it, in order to call its methods, connect to its signals and access its properties. It is also used when creating and registering a new QiService.

Use DynamicObjectBuilder to create an instance of this class.

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
<T> Future<T>	call(Class<T> targetType, String method, Object... args)
<T> Future<T>	call(QiSerializer serializer, Class<T> targetType, String method, Object... args)
<T> Future<T>	call(QiSerializer serializer, Type targetType, String method, Object... args) Convert structs in args to tuples if necessary, then call method asynchronously.
<T> Future<T>	call(String method, Object... args) Perform asynchronous call and return Future return value
<T> Future<T>	call(Type targetType, String method, Object... args)
