Constructor Details

#initialize(type, name, qualifiers = nil, parameters = nil) ⇒ Method

Create a Method with return type (Type) and name (String), optional Qualifiers and parameters (Property)

Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method

#method_missing(name, *args) ⇒ Object

Check for qualifiers

# check for existance
method.qualifier? -> true or false

# check value
method.description -> String or nil
