Object Construction and Destruction
| construction | destruction | |
|---|---|---|
| ABAP Objects | data variable type ref to class . create object variable «exporting parameter = argument». |
|
| C++ (STL) | class variable«(parameters)»; or class *variable = new class«(parameters)»; |
delete pointer; |
| C# | class variable = new class(parameters); | variable.Dispose; |
| Java | variable.dispose; | |
| D | delete variable; | |
| Objective-C (Cocoa) | class *variable = init]; or class *variable = initWithFoo:parameter «bar:parameter ...»]; |
; |
| Python | variable = class(parameters) | del variable (Normally not needed) |
| Visual Basic .NET | Dim variable As New class(parameters) | variable.Dispose |
| Eiffel | create variable or create «{TYPE}» variable.make_foo «(parameters)» or variable := create {TYPE} or variable := create {TYPE}.make_foo «(parameters)» |
|
| PHP | $variable = new class(parameters); | unset($variable); |
| Perl 5 | «my »$variable = class->new«(parameters)»; | undef($variable); |
| Perl 6 | «my »$variable = class.new«(parameters)»; | $variable.undefine; |
| Ruby | variable = class.new«(parameters)» | |
| Windows PowerShell | $variable = New-Object «-TypeName» class ««-ArgumentList» parameters» | Remove-Variable «-Name» variable |
| OCaml | let variable = new class «parameters» or let variable = object members end |
|
| F# | let variable = «new »class(«parameters») | |
| Smalltalk | "The class is an Object. Just send a message to a class, usually #new or #new:, and many others, for example:" Pointy x: 10 y: 20. Array with: -1 with: 3 with: 2. |
|
| JavaScript | var variable = new class«(parameters)» or var variable = { «key1: value1«, key2: value2 ...»»} |
|
| Object Pascal / Delphi | ClassVar := ClassType.ConstructorName(parameters); | ClassVar.Free; |

Famous quotes containing the words object, construction and/or destruction:
“An absolute can only be given in an intuition, while all the rest has to do with analysis. We call intuition here the sympathy by which one is transported into the interior of an object in order to coincide with what there is unique and consequently inexpressible in it. Analysis, on the contrary, is the operation which reduces the object to elements already known.”
—Henri Bergson (18591941)
“No real vital character in fiction is altogether a conscious construction of the author. On the contrary, it may be a sort of parasitic growth upon the authors personality, developing by internal necessity as much as by external addition.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“Because hypocrisy stinks in the nostrils one is likely to rate it as a more powerful agent for destruction than it is.”
—Rebecca West (18921983)
