Part 1 - Classes and Methods / ODShape

Copy

The Copy method creates a new shape object that is a copy of this shape.

ODShape Copy ();

return value

A reference to the newly created shape.

DISCUSSION

The new shape does not share any data with this shape; therefore, you can modify each of the shapes independently. This method automatically deletes the new shape if the copy operation fails.

This method initializes the reference count of the returned shape. When you have finished using that shape, you should call its Release method.

EXCEPTIONS

kODErrOutOfMemory

There is not enough memory to copy this shape.
