NAME FreeClass -- Frees a boopsi class created by makeclass(). (v36) SYNOPSIS success = FreeClass( ClassPtr ) D0 A0 bool freeclass( struct iclass * ); FUNCTION For class implementors only. Tries to free a boopsi class created by makeclass(). this won't always succeed: classes with outstanding objects or with subclasses cannot be freed. You cannot allow the code which implements the class to be unloaded in this case. For public classes, this function will *always* remove the class (see removeclass() ) making it unavailable, whether it succeeds or not. If you have a dynamically allocated data for your class (hanging off of cl_UserData), try to free the class before you free the user data, so you don't get stuck with a half-freed class. INPUTS ClassPtr - pointer to a class created by makeclass(). RESULT Returns FALSE if the class could not be freed. Reasons include, but will not be limited to, having non-zero cl_ObjectCount or cl_SubclassCount. Returns TRUE if the class could be freed. Calls removeclass() for the class in either case. EXAMPLE Freeing a private class with dynamically allocated user data: freeMyClass( cl ) struct iclass *cl; { struct MyPerClassData *mpcd; mpcd = (struct MyPerClassData *) cl->cl_UserData; if ( FreeClass( cl ) ) { FreeMem( mpcd, sizeof mpcd ); return ( TRUE ); } else { return ( FALSE ); } } BUGS SEE ALSO makeclass(), Document "Basic Object-Oriented Programming System for Intuition" and the "boopsi Class Reference" document.
