Member Functions

`MethodRegistration::GetMethodType`	Returns the registered method type.
`MethodRegistration::GetMethodFlags`	Returns the method flags.
`MethodRegistration::GetMethodName`	Returns the human-readable method name.

Constructor

MethodRegistration(MethodType type, const char *name, unsigned long flags = 0, MethodGroup group = 0);

Parameters

`type`	The method type.
`name`	The method name.
`flags`	The method flags. See below for possible values.
`group`	The group to which the method belongs. This should be 0 for all custom methods.

Description

The MethodRegistration class is abstract and serves as the common base class for the template class MethodReg. A custom script method is registered with the engine by instantiating an object of type MethodReg<classType>, where classType is the type of the method subclass being registered.

The flags parameter can be a combination (through logical OR) of the following values.

`kMethodNoTarget`	The method does not operate on a target node.
`kMethodNoSelfTarget`	The method cannot operate on the node to which its script controller is attached.
`kMethodNoMessage`	The method does not generate any controller messages. This flag is implied by `kMethodNoTarget`.
`kMethodOutputValue`	The method generates an output value that can be stored in a script variable.
