property Abstract as %Boolean [ InitialExpression = 0 ];
Specifies that this is an abstract method. An abstract method has no implementation and has no executable code generated for it. Abstract methods exist solely for the purpose of defining a method signature or interface that can be overridden and implemented within one or more subclasses.
property ClassMethod as %Boolean [ InitialExpression = 0 ];
Specifies that the method is a class method. Instance methods can only be invoked via an instantiated object while class methods can be directly invoked without an object instance.
property CodeMode as %CacheString [ InitialExpression = "code" ];
Specifies how a given method is implemented: as a routine call, lines of code to be compiled, an expression, or a method that will generate the resulting method or object.
Specifies the list of arguments. Each argument is of the format [&|*]<name>[:<type>][=<default>] where & means pass-by-reference and * means output-only.
The code that is executed when the method is invoked. In the case of an expression method, this is an expression. In the case of a call method, this is the name of a Cache routine to call.
property NoContext as %Boolean [ InitialExpression = 0 ];
If true and in a datatype method, this prevents the * Set %val=..prop Set $this="" * that is added to the property method so you can override things like the Get/Set methods.
property SoapAction as %CacheString [ InitialExpression = "[default]" ];
Lets you specify the HTTP SOAP action that must be used when invoking this web service method as a web method. For SOAP 1.1, the SOAP action is obtained from the SOAPAction HTTP header. For SOAP 1.2, it is obtained from the Content-Type HTTP header.
This keyword will reflects the expected element name for top element of the SOAP body in the SOAP request. This element is needed to distinguish between multiple requests which have the same SoapAction but different top level body elements.
If 'procedure' then this is equivalent to SqlProc keyword and means class method can be called as an SQL procedure. If 'function' then this class method can be called as an SQL function.
Inherited description: Obtain an exclusive or shared lock on the object identified by id. The type
of lock obtained is determined by shared. This method is normally generated by
the storage class for persistent classes using %Library.CacheStorage or %Library.CacheSQLStorage.
Inherited description: This callback method is invoked by the %New() method to
provide notification that a new instance of an object is being created.
If this method returns an error then the object will not be created.
It is passed the arguments provided in the %New call.
When customizing this method, override the arguments with whatever variables and types you expect to receive from %New().
For example, if you're going to call %New, passing 2 arguments, %OnNew's signature could be:
Method %OnNew(dob as %Date = "", name as %Name = "") as %Status
If instead of returning a %Status code this returns an oref and this oref is a subclass of the current
class then this oref will be the one returned to the caller of %New method.
Inherited description: %SaveData() - saves an object to disk, checks uniqueness and referential
integrity constraints, and maintains index structures. This method is
implemented by the storage class.
Inherited description: Release an exclusive or shared lock on the object identified by id. The type
of lock released is determined by shared. If this method is not overridden
then the default implementation returns an error. This method is normally generated by
the storage class for persistent classes using %Library.CacheStorage or %Library.CacheSQLStorage.
