[Xotcl] init Constructor

[Stefan Sobernig]

Hi Maksym!

Thank you for your Email!

> Hello, is it possible to pass data to init constructor in NX?

No, unless you would fiddle around (see below), NX, by default, does not 
allow doing so (for good reasons).

What do you want to achieve? You can still process  (e.g., validate) the 
properties and object variables from within init, as it will be called. 
But it won't receive, by default, the residual arguments to object 
construction.

You should use an initblock script to call init explicitly, passing in 
your arguments. (NX will ensure that the init is not called internally 
for a  second time.) Still, I recommend sticking with the property 
mechanism.
HTH, Stefan

nx::Class create hello {
     :method init {args} {
	if {[llength $args] > 0} {
	    foreach name $args { puts "Hello: $name" }
	}
     }
}

::hello create helloObj [list :init [list Bruno Peter] ]
