Class BoundArgument

Namespace

RDCore.SDK.Semantics.Binding

Assembly

RDCore.SDK.dll

The argument a call gives one parameter of the procedure it calls, bound (MS-VBAL §5.3.1.11): which of the arguments written at the call it is, and how it is passed - decided once, from the declarations and the arguments as they are written, rather than each time the call is made.

Inheritance

BoundArgument

Implements

IEquatable<BoundArgument>

Inherited Members

object.Equals(object)

object.Equals(object, object)

object.GetHashCode()

object.GetType()

object.ReferenceEquals(object, object)

object.ToString()

Remarks

What only the call can decide stays the call's: whether a variable given to a ByRef parameter is of its declared type (an element type, a field of an object only known at run time), what a Variant argument holds, an error the argument raises.

The argument a call gives one parameter of the procedure it calls, bound (MS-VBAL §5.3.1.11): which of the arguments written at the call it is, and how it is passed - decided once, from the declarations and the arguments as they are written, rather than each time the call is made.

public BoundArgument(VBParameterSymbol Parameter, ArgumentPassing Passing, ExpressionNode? Expression, BoundNode? Value, ConversionPlan? Plan, ImmutableArray<BoundNode> Elements)

Parameters

Parameter VBParameterSymbol

The parameter.

Passing ArgumentPassing

How the argument is passed.

Expression ExpressionNode

The argument as it is written - the value of a named argument; null for one that is Omitted or ParamArray.

Value BoundNode

The argument, bound; null when there is no Expression.

Plan ConversionPlan

How an argument passed by Value is let-coerced to the parameter's declared type, made for the argument's declared type - deferred when it is a Variant; null when the argument has no declared type, and for any other passing.

Elements ImmutableArray<BoundNode>

The arguments a ParamArray collects, bound; empty for any other passing.
