Description
The ADDPROPERTY() function is used to add a property to an existing object. It returns .T. (True) if the property was successfully added and .F. (False) otherwise.
| Parameter | Description | 
|---|---|
| <object-name> | The name of the object. | 
| <expC> | The name of the property to be added. | 
| <exp> | The value to assign to the property being added. This is optional: if omitted and the property being added already exists, the property value is unchanged, if omitted and the property is new, the value is initialized to .F. (False). | 
All classes have an inbuilt addproperty method.  This can be used as an alternative to the ADDPROPERTY() function to add properties to an object at runtime.
<object-name>.addproperty(<expC>,<exp>)
Note: the <exp> value is required.
Properties can be removed using the REMOVEPROPERTY() function or inbuilt removeproperty method. 
Example
define class myclass as custom myprop = "Hello World" enddefine myobject = createobject("myclass") Messagebox(myobject.myprop) addproperty(myobject, "myprop2", "goodbye") // Or: myobject.addproperty("myprop2", "goodbye") Messagebox(myobject.myprop2) removeproperty(myobject, "myprop2") // Or: myobject.removeproperty("myprop2")
Products
