Class RMInvocation

java.lang.Object

com.reportmill.base.RMObject

com.reportmill.graphics.RMInvocation

All Implemented Interfaces:

RMArchiver.Archiving, Cloneable

public class RMInvocation
extends RMObject

This class represent a method call and is used to set values on another object, either by calling a "setFoo()" method or by directly setting the value of a public instance variable. The action string is always of the form "setFoo:". If the target object has a setFoo() method, that method will get called. If not, but it has a "foo" or "_foo" instance variable, that variable will get stuffed with the value.
