MidgardObjectClass* midgard_reflection_property_get_link_class (  MidgardReflectionProperty *  object, const gchar *  name )

Returns the class that the named property is linked to. Returns NULL if the named property is not a link. Parameters: object  MidgardReflectionProperty [in]  name  property name registered for the given MidgardObjectClass Returns: the link target class, or NULL NULL is returned when property is not found as member of a class or if class is not registered within GType system.

const gchar* midgard_reflection_property_get_link_name (  MidgardReflectionProperty *  object, const gchar *  name )

Gets the class name of type which property is linked to. Parameters: object  MidgardReflectionProperty [in]  name  property name registered for the given MidgardObjectClass Returns: class name or NULL if property is not linked with other type. NULL is returned when property is not found as member of a class or if class is not registered within GType system. Definition at line 125 of file midgard_reflection_property.c.

const gchar* midgard_reflection_property_get_link_target (  MidgardReflectionProperty *  object, const gchar *  name )

Gets the name of target property. Parameters: object  MidgardReflectionProperty instance [in]  name  property name registered for the given MidgardObjectClass Returns: target property name for which given property name is linked to. NULL is returned if: property name is not member of the class property name is not defined as link in MgdSchema Definition at line 139 of file midgard_reflection_property.c.

GType midgard_reflection_property_get_midgard_type (  MidgardReflectionProperty *  object, const gchar *  name )

Get Midgard Type of the property. Parameters: object  MidgardReflectionProperty [in]  name  property name registered for the given MidgardObjectClass Returns: Gtype Returned Gtype is registered as Midgard type. MGD_TYPE_NONE is returned if property is not found as member of a class or if class is not registered within GType system. Definition at line 83 of file midgard_reflection_property.c.
