Self Keyword (Delphi and Corel Paradox Cross Reference Guide)

By Mike Prestwood

Delphi versus Corel Paradox: A side by side comparison between Delphi and Corel Paradox.

Language Details

Language Details is kind of a catch all for stuff that didn't make it into language basics nor any other category.

Self Keyword

[Other Languages]

Delphi: Self

Within the implementation of a method, the identifier Self references the object in which the method is called. The Self variable is an implicit parameter for each object method. A method can use this variable to refer to its owning class.

Syntax Example:

ShowMessage('Self=' + Self.ClassName);

Corel Paradox: Self

A built-in object variable that represents the UIObject to which the currently executing code is attached.

Syntax Example: 1 certification question.

method pushButton(var eventInfo Event)
  msgInfo("", self.Name)
endMethod
