get-method [Function]

Purpose

The get-method function returns the method having a specified name and title.

Syntax

get-method action title &key no-error-p

Arguments

The action argument is an action, or the name of an action.

The title argument is a string which titles a method.

If the no-error-p argument is t, then no error is generated if Loom cannot find a method having the specified name and title.

Value

The get-method function returns the method with the specified name and title. If there is none, nil is returned if no-error-p is set, and otherwise an error is generated.

Remarks

The get- functions are faster and do less error-checking than the find- functions. In particular, get-method is much faster than find-method.

Examples

(get-method 'move "move box") ==> |METHOD|MOVE-"move box" 
(get-method 'open "open box" :no-error-p t) ==> |METHOD|OPEN-"open box"
