X::Method::NotFound Reference

Error due to calling a method that isn't there

What it is #

Routines #

Signatures are reproduced from the documentation, including their declared return types. A routine listed here is part of the type's published interface; whether Raku++ implements it is a separate question, answered by the examples below.

method method #

method method(--> Str:D)

Returns Str:D.

Returns the method name that was invoked.

method typename #

method typename(--> Str:D)

Returns Str:D.

Returns the name of the invocant type.

method private #

method private(--> Bool:D)

Returns Bool:D.

Returns True for private methods, and False for public methods.

method addendum #

method addendum(--> Str:D)

Returns Str:D.

Returns additional explanations or hints. Note: addendum was introduced in Rakudo 2019.03.

Examples, run three ways #

Every example below comes from the official documentation, together with the output that documentation asserts. Each was then executed by Rakudo and by Raku++ when this page was built. Where the three agree, one result is shown; where they do not, all three are — because which of them is wrong is exactly the information worth having.
