Using New Procedure (OOP)

- 2.2.13.10 -

TMT Pascal Language Description

In most cases, instantiating of an object is combined with allocation of memory for the object:

var
  C: ^Circle;
begin
  New(C);
  C.Init(P, R);
  ...

The extended syntax of the New procedure allows one to combine the operation:

var
  C: ^Circle;
begin
  New(C.Init(P, R));
  ...

Note that constructors cannot be virtual methods, since virtual methods cannot be called before a constructor initializes the VMT.
