Synthesizing Members with Proxy
Learn how to synthesize dynamic properties with Proxy with examples.
In Injecting Multiple Properties, we injected the first
and last
properties into instances of Array
so we could fluently get the first
and last
elements of an array. We came up with property names like first and last at the time of metaprogramming, but on many occasions, we may want to devise property or method names at runtime based on the execution context or state of an object. In other words, we may not know the name of a property to be injected at code writing time; it comes to life at runtime.
Method synthesis example
To practice method synthesis, let’s create an example that uses a Map
that holds an associative set of keys and values of languages and authors.
