Field Detail

CLASSback to summary
public static final MethodKind CLASS

The first argument is the Python type of the target. The method must be defined either by a Java static method in which an initial type argument is declared. In a call from Python that uses dot notation, which is attribute lookup, the target object's type is used to find the method, and is bound to the first parameter.

INSTANCEback to summary
public static final MethodKind INSTANCE

The first argument is self or a module. The method must be defined either by a Java instance method or by a static method in which an initial self or module argument is declared. In a call from Python that uses dot notation, which is attribute lookup, the target object (or module) is used to find the method, and is bound to the first parameter.

STATICback to summary
public static final MethodKind STATIC

The method must be defined by a Java static method. An initial self or module argument is not expected. (If the writer attempts to declare one it will simply be the first parameter.) In a call from Python that uses dot notation, which is attribute lookup, the target object (or its type) is used to find the method, but is not bound to the first parameter.
