Invoke

<java:invoke>

Invoke methods with the provided arguments in an instance. The identifier of the method to invoke includes the class and method names, being the method a full description of its signature including the types of each parameter.

For example, to invoke the echo method with the signature public String echo(String msg) that belongs to Class org.bar.Me, then the identifier of the method is echo(String).

Parameters

Name Type Description Default Value Required

Name	Type	Description	Default Value	Required
Instance	Any	The instance on which the method is invoked.		x
Args	Object	The arguments used to invoke a method.
Class	String	Represents the fully qualified name of the class containing the referenced method.		x
Method	String	Represents the method signature containing the method name and its argument types. For example, for the method with signature, `public String log(String msg, boolean verbose)`, then the identifier of the method is `log(String, boolean)`		x
Target Variable	String	The name of a variable in which to place the operation’s output.
Target Value	String	An expression to evaluate against the operation’s output, and to store the outcome of that expression in the target variable.	#[payload]

Instance

Any

The instance on which the method is invoked.

Args

Object

The arguments used to invoke a method.

Class

String

Represents the fully qualified name of the class containing the referenced method.

Method

String

Represents the method signature containing the method name and its argument types. For example, for the method with signature, public String log(String msg, boolean verbose), then the identifier of the method is log(String, boolean)

Target Variable

String

The name of a variable in which to place the operation’s output.

Target Value

String

Invoke Static

<java:invoke-static>

Operation that allows the user to invoke static methods with the provided arguments. The identifier of the method to be invoked includes the class and method names, being the method a full description of its signature including the types of each parameter.

For example, to invoke the static method echo with signature public static String echo(String msg) that belongs to Class org.bar.Me, then the identifier of the method is echo(String).

New

<java:new>

Create a new instance of a class.

The identifier of a Constructor includes the class and constructor names, and the constructor has a full description of its signature including the types of each parameter.

For example, to invoke the constructor Me(String name, int age) which belongs to the org.bar.Me class, then the identifier of the method is Me(String,int).
