Introduction

The System Core comes with its own extended Object class to provide additional functionality like runtime control and reflection.

import { Object } from `@tsl/system-core`;
const obj = new Object();
console.log(obj instanceof Object); // true

The Object class provides in combination with the Type class a more advanced type reflection. You can easily compare the class type agains a full qualified name with virtual namespace or agains an other class type.

import { Object, Type } from `@tsl/system-core`;
const obj = new Object();
console.log(obj.getType().fullName === '@tsl/system-core/System.Object'); // true
const obj2 = new Object();
console.log(Type.of(obj).equals(Type.of(obj2))); // true

With the help of the abstract Enum class you can also declare full qualified enums with their own unique type.

import { Enum, Namespace } from `@tsl/system-core`;
@Namespace('MyApp').$('Namespace')
class MyEnum extends Enum<number>
{
    public static readonly Maybe = new MyEnum(1);
    public static readonly No = new MyEnum(0);
    public static readonly Yes = new MyEnum(2);
}
const myFlag: MyEnum = MyEnum.Maybe;
