1.20.2 Collections


The Collection class provides a template for holding multiple objects of the same type. In Origin C, an instance of a Collection is read-only. You cannot add items to, or delete items from, a collection.

There are a number of Origin C classes that contain data members which are instances of a Collection. For example, the Project class contains a data member named WorksheetPages. The WorksheetPages data member is a collection of all the existing WorksheetPage objects in the project.

The table below lists each of the Origin C Collections, along with the class that contains the collection and the item types in the collection.
