Create a new MetaClass

Revision as of 08:53, 23 July 2013 by KNO (Talk | contribs)

A new MetaClass has to be created as a derivative (child) from another class (parent). This can easily be done in the Class Browser control following the steps

  1. Navigate to the favoured parent MetaClass in the Class Browser
  2. Create a new child MetaClass with Derive new object from the context menu
    Derive new object
  3. Edit name and description, either
  4. Save the object with Ctrl+S

Technical background

The system creates a new instance of CUSTOMMETACLASS and sets the Inherit property with the parent MetaClass. Obviously, a MetaClass is also an instance of CUSTOMMETACLASS and hence, can be treated as a Content Object as well.
