set_object


Description:

public void set_object (Object v_object)

Set the contents of a typeof (Object) derived Value to v_object.

set_object increases the reference count of v_object (the Value holds a reference to v_object). If you do not wish to increase the reference count of the object (i.e. you wish to pass your current reference to the Value because you no longer need it), use take_object instead.

It is important that your Value holds a reference to v_object (either its own, or one it has taken) to ensure that the object won't be destroyed while the Value still exists).

Parameters:

v_object object value to be set
