InitPort

You should never need to use the InitPort procedure. The OpenPort procedure calls the InitPort procedure, which reinitializes the fields of a basic graphics port and makes it the current port.

PROCEDURE InitPort (port:\xDDGrafPtr);

port

A pointer to a GrafPort record.

DESCRIPTION

The InitPort procedure reinitializes the fields of a GrafPort record that was opened with the OpenPort procedure, and makes it the current graphics port. The InitPort procedure sets the values of the port's fields to those listed in the OpenPort procedure description. The InitPort procedure does not allocate space for the visible or clipping regions.

SEE ALSO

The InitCPort procedure (described in the chapter "Color QuickDraw") initializes a color graphics port.
