Class SLambdaFunctionVarArg

java.lang.Object
  com.pdmfc.tea.runtime.SLambdaFunctionVarArg

All Implemented Interfaces:

SObjFunction

public class SLambdaFunctionVarArg
extends java.lang.Object
implements SObjFunction

A function defined inside a Tea program with a variable number of arguments. A function is defined by a list of symbols, that are its formal parameters, and a block, that is the code to be executed when the command is invoked.

The block is executed in a new context. This new context is an imediate descendent of the context where the block was created. Before the block is actually executed, variables named after the formal parameters are created and initialized with the values with which the command was invoked. The return value of the proc is the return value of the last statement of the block.

Specified by:

exec in interface SObjFunction

Parameters:

context - The context where this command is being invoked.
