Hello,

How can I add new ax object by its name, (the object is a referred to AX-query) and than call one of its methods with parameters (also by it's name).

 

Also, How can I resolve whether the method is kind of static, private, public, display, etc.

(That shall be a query with methods ...)

Thanks :)

    Hi,

    is the following what you need?

    For this job, I added a method qrInfo to standard AX query AccountantLogisticsAddress_BR. The method just generates an info message.

       Query       q;
   QueryRun    qr;
   Object      o;
   MethodName  methodName = "qrInfo";
   ;

   // Create Query
   q = new Query(queryStr(AccountantLogisticsAddress_BR));

   // Create QueryRun and cast to an object so that we can call whatever methods
   qr = new QueryRun(q);
   o  = qr;

   // Make sure the method exists before calling it
   if (TreeNode::findNode('\\Queries\\' + qr.name() + '\\methods\\'+methodName))
   {
       o.qrInfo();
   }

    Hope this helps!

    Ah, sorry, there were two questions, of course :-)

    Usually, you'd resort to DictMethod or MethodInfo for this. They have several methods like "isStatic" or "accessSpecifier", but they don't seem to work in this case - or at least I don't get them to work ... sorry

        MethodInfo  methodInfo;
    methodInfo  = new MethodInfo(UtilElementType::Query, classIdGet(o), methodName);
