/ lang / new Object = NEW Class [ ( Constructor parameters... ) ] [ AS Name ]
Instantiates the class Class.
If a name is specified, the new object will be able to raise events by calling a public procedure or function in its "parent".
![]() |
NEW is not an operator. You can only use it within an assignment.
But you can use the Object.New function instead. |
![]() | Two different objects can have the same event name. Thus, you can manage events of multiple objects in the same event procedure, provided these objects raise the same events. |

That second syntax allows to specify the class name dynamically as a string.
