CImageView:new
The new method creates an instance of the CImageView class. This method returns to the caller a reference to the object it creates. The calling code must assign this reference to a name.
Object = CImageView:new()
On success, this method returns a reference to the new CImageView object.
If the object cannot be created, nil is returned.
There are 2 additional ways to create a new CImageView without using this method:
Use the Attach method to create a new CImageView attached to the top-most Image Window.
Use the AttachFromList method to create a new CImageView by selecting from a list of all open Image Windows.
Note: This method's name uses all lower case to present it as the analog of the C++ new operator. Generally, the names of class methods begin with an uppercase letter but new and delete are different.
V = CImageView:new() |
-- create a new instance of V of the CImageView class. |
... |
-- other uses of the class go here, between new and delete. |
V:delete() |
-- deletes the object and its associated memory. |
