oC Structure class:deValue()

Re-loads binary structure data from memory.

Syntax

:deValue( [<lRecurse>] ) --> self

Arguments

<lRecurse>: This parameter defaults to .F. (false). It should be set to .T. (true) when the structure object maintains a nested structure. That is, it contains other structure objects in its instance variables.

Description

Method :deValue() reads structure data from memory and assigns values to all instance variables representing structure members. This is required when the structure data is passed to an API function which changes values of structure members. The changed values are then copied into the instance variables of the structure object with method :deValue().
