Array of classes

[hjackman]

I have a class with several properties and methods that manipulate unmanaged
memory. When I need more memory, I simple create another class and add the
class to an array. My question is such: When I create a new instance of
the class, are the methods shared by all instances of the class or are they
also reallocated with each new instance of the class?

Re: Array of classes

Im not to sure on the terminology included in your post, but I have
this code within my application to create a new instance of a form
class.

=============== =============== =====
Dim Frm As New frmMain()
Me.AddOwnedForm (Frm)
Frm.Show()
=============== =============== =====

and to cycle through the list of owned forms, just use a for loop sort
of like this:

=============== =============== =====
Dim frm As frmMain
For Each frm In Me.OwnedForms

<Code to be executed in here>

Next frm
=============== =============== =====


I hope that helps.

But the private data isn't.
