[gme-users] creating instance of a model

[Akos Ledeczi]

Both CBuilderFolder and CBuilderModel have the following functions:

CBuilderModel *CreateNewModel(CString kindName,
	CBuilderModel* baseType = NULL,
	bool instance = true);
CBuilderAtom  *CreateNewAtom(CString kindName,
	CBuilderAtom* baseType = NULL,
	bool instance = true);
CBuilderModelReference *CreateNewModelReference(CString kindName,
	CBuilderObject* refTo);
CBuilderReference *CreateNewReference(CString kindName,
	CBuilderObject* refTo,
	CBuilderReference* baseType = NULL,
	bool instance = true);
CBuilderSet *CreateNewSet(CString kindName,
	CBuilderSet* baseType = NULL,
	bool instance = true);

If the baseType is not NULL than they'll create derived objects. If 
instance is true then intances, oetherwise subtypes.

But there may be a misunderstanding here. If your paradigm has a kind 
"Car", you can create models in your project that have "Car" as their 
kind. They will become types (archetypes). Then you can create subtypes 
or instances of these objects. You cannot create an instance of a Car 
from scratch. This may just be a terminology issue though...
