Public Instance Methods

WIN32OLE_PARAM#default click to toggle source

Returns default value. If the default value does not exist, this method returns nil.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'Workbook')
method = WIN32OLE_METHOD.new(tobj, 'SaveAs')
method.params.each do |param|
  if param.default
    puts "#{param.name} (= #{param.default})"
  else
    puts "#{param}"
  end
end
