new_set

new_set

The new_set function is a non-class version of the CSet:new method which creates and returns a new CSet object..

S = new_set()

Default constructor. The new CSet S has no elements.

S = new_set( CSet_old )

This is a copy constructor. The new CSet S is initialized to the members of the CSet_old argument.

The following example shows the use of a default constructor and destructor pair:

S = new_set()	-- create a new instance of S of the CSet class.
...	-- other uses of the class go here, between new and delete.
S:delete()	-- deletes the object and its associated memory.

The next example shows the use of both types of constructors:

S = new_set()	-- initialization constructor
S:Append( "Add" )	-- add a member
S:Append( "Mul" )	-- add a member
S:Append( "Div" )	-- add a member
Printf("Count= %d", S:Count())	-- result: Count = 3
S2 = new_set(S)	-- copy constructor
Printf("Count= %d", S2:Count())	-- result: Count = 3
