Synopsis
void *OMXgroup::ret_class_ptr(
const char *class_name);
Description
OMXgroup::ret_class_ptr returns a pointer to the C++ class specified that was associated with this object using the property cxx_class. You use this routine when you have associated your own C++ class with an AVS/Express object and you want to get a pointer to the object that AVS/Express created of your class. Usually this is used in the code for an AVS/Express method.
Arguments
class_name
The name of some class specified with the cxx_class property on this object or on a template that this object was created from.
Returned value
This routine returns a void * that can then be cast to the object you specified.
Example
This example shows how to retrieve a pointer to a C++ class called QuadraticSolver that was associated with an AVS/Express object using the cxx_class property. For the full text of this example,

(QuadraticSolver *)ret_class_ptr("QuadraticSolver");
