Types

Fields

note

All fields must be initialized when creating a class.

pub type Person {
    pub field name: string;
}

// Usage:
let person = new Person { 
    name: "Patrik" 
};

Methods

use Mew;

pub type Clock {
    pub fn get_current_time() -> Timestamp {
        return Timestamp::Now;
    }
}

// Usage:
let clock = new Clock();
let now = clock.get_current_time();

Static methods

use Mew;

pub type Clock {
    pub static fn get_current_time() -> Timestamp {
        return Timestamp::Now;
    }
}

// Usage:
let now = Clock::get_current_time();

Constructors

Mew does not have constructors per se, but uses one or more static methods; by convention called new.

pub type Person {
    pub field name: string;

    pub static fn new(name: string) -> Person {
        return Person(name: name)
    }
}

// Usage:
let person = Person::new("Patrik");
