Attributes topic

The Attributes system in Mix consists of three types of objects:

  • Attributes (these classes) — the classes that actually are instantiated in the Mix object.
  • Utilities — These classes provide static functions that can instantiate their corresponding Attribute classes.
  • Short Utils — One line abbreviated functions that invoke the corresponding Utility class to instantiate the corresponding Attribute class. See the Utilities topic page for more information.

This may seem like a lot of parts to create Attributes, but under normal usage, you won't deal with any of the Attribute or Utility classes, directly. Rather, you will instantiate them using the Short Utils utility functions, which are listed in their corresponding Utility functions.

Attribute classes are listed here for completeness.
