getLanguageSignatures()

Availability

Adobe Dreamweaver MX.

Description

This function returns an object that describes the method and array signatures that the scripting language uses. The getLanguageSignatures() function helps map generic signature mapping to language-specific mapping for the following elements:

• The function
• Constructors
• Drop code (return values)
• Arrays
• Exceptions
• Data type mappings for primitive data types

The getLanguageSignatures() function returns a map of these signature declarations. Extension developers can use this map to generate language-specific code blocks that Adobe Dreamweaver drops on the page (based on the appropriate server model for the page) when the user drags and drops a Web Services method, for example.

For examples of how to write this function, see the HTML implementation files for the JSP and the ASP.Net server models. Server model implementation files are located in the Configuration/ServerModels folder.

Arguments

None.

Returns

Adobe Dreamweaver expects an object that defines the scripting language signatures. This object should map the generic signatures to language-specific ones.
