  args.empty? ? self::DEFAULT : new(*args)
end

.new_function(type) ⇒ Function

This default implementation of of a new_function raises an Argument Error. Types for which creating a new instance is supported, should create and return a Puppet Function class by using Puppet:Loaders.create_loaded_function(:new, loader) and return that result.

Parameters:

  • type (PAnyType) —

    the type to create a new function for

Returns:

  • (Function) —

    the created function

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

end

def self.register_ptype(loader, ir)
  @type = Pcore::create_object_type(loader, ir, self, 'Pcore::AnyType', 'Any', EMPTY_HASH)
end

.simple_name ⇒ String

Strips the class name from all module prefixes, the leading ‘P’ and the ending ‘Type’. I.e. an instance of PVariantType will return ‘Variant’

Returns:

  • (String) —

    the simple name of this type

def ==(o)
  eql?(o)
end

#accept(visitor, guard) ⇒ Object

Accept a visitor that will be sent the message ‘visit`, once with `self` as the argument. The visitor will then visit all types that this type contains.

# File 'lib/puppet/pops/types/types.rb', line 90

  visitor.visit(self, guard)
end

#assignable?(o, guard = nil) ⇒ Boolean

Checks if o is a type that is assignable to this type. If o is a ‘Class` then it is first converted to a type. If o is a Variant, then it is considered assignable when all its types are assignable

The check for assignable must be guarded against self recursion since ‘self`, the given type o, or both, might be a `TypeAlias`. The initial caller of this method will typically never care about this and hence pass only the first argument, but as soon as a check of a contained type encounters a `TypeAlias`, then a `RecursionGuard` instance is created and passed on in all subsequent calls. The recursion is allowed to continue until self recursion has been detected in both `self` and in the given type. At that point the given type is considered to be assignable to `self` since all checks up to that point were positive.

Parameters:

  • o (Class, PAnyType) —

    the class or type to test

  • guard (RecursionGuard) (defaults to: nil) —

    guard against recursion. Only used by internal calls

Returns:

  • (Boolean) —

    ‘true` when o is assignable to this type

#iterable_type(guard = nil) ⇒ PIterableType?

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Returns the ‘PIterableType` that this type should be assignable to, or `nil` if no such type exists. A type that returns a `PIterableType` must respond `true` to `#iterable?`.

Examples:

Any Collection[T] is assignable to an Iterable[T]
A String is assignable to an Iterable[String] iterating over the strings characters
An Integer is assignable to an Iterable[Integer] iterating over the 'times' enumerator
A Type[T] is assignable to an Iterable[Type[T]] if T is an Integer or Enum

Parameters:

  • guard (RecursionGuard) (defaults to: nil) —

    guard against recursion. Only used by internal calls

Returns:

  • (PIterableType, nil) —

    The iterable type that this type is assignable to or ‘nil`

#kind_of_callable?(optional = true, guard = nil) ⇒ Boolean

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Parameters:

  • optional (Boolean) (defaults to: true)
  • guard (RecursionGuard) (defaults to: nil) —

    guard against recursion. Only used by internal calls

Returns:

#normalize(guard = nil) ⇒ PAnyType

Normalizes the type. This does not change the characteristics of the type but it will remove duplicates and constructs like NotUndef where T is not assignable from Undef and change Variant where all T are enums into an Enum.

Parameters:

  • guard (RecursionGuard) (defaults to: nil) —

    guard against recursion. Only used by internal calls

#really_instance?(o, guard = nil) ⇒ Integer

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

An object is considered to really be an instance of a type when something other than a TypeAlias or a Variant responds true to a call to #instance?.

Returns:

  • (Integer) —

    -1 = is not instance, 0 = recursion detected, 1 = is instance

#resolve(loader) ⇒ PTypeAliasType

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Called from the TypeParser once it has found a type using the Loader to enable that this type can resolve internal type expressions using a loader. Presently, this method is a no-op for all types except the {PTypeAliasType}.
