SYNOPSIS

use HaikuR1::Statable;

my $stat = $statable->GetStat();

from HaikuR1.StorageKit import Statable

stat = statable.GetStat();

DESCRIPTION

Exposes the BStatable object.

For more information on Statable, see the Be Book class description, the Be Book overview, and the Haiku Book class description.

Note that Statable is an abstract object, so there is no constructor. Given that the target languages (Perl and Python) have their own facilities for finding this information, you may not find this function very useful. However, it is the base class for Node, so it has been implemented.
