Method XbpFileDev():create() Foundation

Requests system resources for a device context to use in creating metafiles.

Syntax
:create() --> self
Return

This method returns the object executing the method (self).

Description

An XbpFileDev object manages a device context that is provided by the operating system. After XpbFileDevice():new() is called, the XbpFileDev object exists but not the device context. The :create() method requests the device context from the operating system. After this is done, the XbpFileDev object can be linked with a presentation space.
