Export

The Export aspect creates a public export in the object file for a static method, static field or a type, but does not create an export entry in the dynamic library, as the higher-level [DllExport] Aspect does. Like DllExpoer, it takes an optional String parameter which lets you override the default name the symbol will be exported under.

Note that Export is not required to use type from one Elements library project from a different Elements on the same platform. All public types and their pubbic or protected members will be available when referencing an Elements project via its .fx file. It is also not required to expose Cocoa classes to Objective-C-based Xcode projects using your library.

Export is mostly used in WebAssembly projects to make a class available to JavaScript and the browser.

Island Only

The Export aspect is available only on the Island platform.

type
  [Export]
  MyClass = public class 
  public  
    method MyMethod();
    begin
      ...
    end;
  end;

[Export]
public class MyClass
{
    public void MyMethod()
    {
        ...
    }
}

@Export
public class MyClass {
    public func MyMethod() {
        ...
    }
}

@Export
public class MyClass {
    public void MyMethod() {
        ...
    }
}
