As an aid to understanding the ConstantClass, it is useful to organize the its methods into two large categories according to their expected use–the primary interface and the virtual methods. This organization reflects what we believe is typical use of the ConstantClass methods.
Non-Virtual Methods
The Non-Virtual Methods, which you are likely to call fairly routinely from your program, can be further divided into three categories:
Housekeeping (one-time) Use:
| Init | initialize the ConstantClass object | |
| AddItem | set constant datatype and target variable | |
| Set | set the constant data to process | |
| Kill | shut down the ConstantClass object |
Mainstream Use:
| Next | copy one or all constant items to targets |
Occasional Use:
| Reset | reset the object to beginning of the constant data |
Virtual Methods
The ConstantClass has no virtual methods.
