Copy a Graphic iOS

KyleDunaway — Wed, 30 Jul 2014 21:33:29 GMT

How can I make a copy of an existing graphic, make changes to the copy, and add it as a new feature.

AGSGraphic *newGraphic = oldGraphic;

newGraphic setAttributes(whatever) also changes the attributes of oldGraphic, because of the pointer to a pointer.

How do I just make a copy?

Thanks.

Given you have an old graphic, you can encode to JSON and pass that to the new graphic, will create a copy using JSON.

AGSGraphic *newGraphic = [[AGSGraphic alloc] initWithJSON:[oldgraphic encodeToJSON]];

Hope this helps

Cheers
