NAME

DsInqObjType − Return an object’s type from its object handle

SYNOPSIS

C:

DtInt DsInqObjType(object)
DtObject object;

Fortran:

INTEGER∗4 DSQOT(OBJECT)
INTEGER∗4 OBJECT

DESCRIPTION

DsInqObjType finds an object’s type given its object handle.  The parameter object specifies the object. 

When an object is created, it is assigned a type.  This type is identical to the class identifier of the class of which the object is an instance.  The class identifier for a particular class can be queried with DsInqClassId <DSQCI>. 

ERRORS

DsInqObjType will fail if the object handle is invalid; a -1 is returned. 

[WARNING - invalid or deleted object]
