Method Functions

The functions described in this section return information about the objects involved in the call to the current method: the caller, the definer, the sender, and the current object. If a method defined by object A, processing a message for object B, sends a message to object C, which results in a call to a method defined by object D, then A is the caller, B is the sender, C is the current object, and D is the definer.

Menu:

The definer of the calling method
