Class "GDALMajorObject"
"GDALMajorObject" is a virtual base class for all GDAL objects.
getDescription(object)
object |
an object inheriting from "GDALMajorObject" |
getDescription:returns a descrption string associated with the object. No setter method is defined because GDAL dataset objects use the description to hold the filename attached to the dataset. It would not be good to change that mid-stream.
Objects can be created by calls of the form new("GDALMajorObject", ...), but are only created for classes that extend this class.
handle:Object of class "externalptr", used internally; not for public consumption
No methods defined with class "GDALMajorObject" in the signature.
