The new operator is use to creates a new object.
Syntax
new constructor[(arguments)]
The constructor argument calls object's constructor. The parentheses can be omitted if the constructor takes no arguments.
Example
The new operator performs the following tasks:
-
It creates an object with no members.
-
It calls the constructor for that object, passing a pointer to the newly created object as the this pointer.
The constructor then initializes the object according to the arguments passed to the constructor.
These are examples of valid uses of the new operator:
my_object = new Object;
my_array = new Array();
my_date = new Date("Jan 5 1996");
