B4J Question Can I Use New() Instead of Initialize for Standard Classes?

[cklester]

Can I use any name for the initialization sub of a standard class, or does Initialize have to exist?

dim myBook as Book
myBook.Initialize("Title","Author",ISBN_Number)

-or-

dim myBook as Book
myBook.New("Title","Author",ISBN_Number)

-best?-

dim myBook as Book = Book.New("Title","Author",ISBN_Number)

err no. not possible. you can create a sub and do this

dim myBook as Book = Book.New("Title","Author",ISBN_Number)

sub createBook() as Book
dim book as book
book.initialize
return book
end sub

dim b as book = createBook()
