`__CreateElement`

Introduction

Creates an Element object.

Syntax

__CreateElement(tagName: string, parentComponentUniqueID: number, info?: object) : Element;

Parameters

Key	Description
tagName	A string that specifies the type of Element to create, which corresponds to the LynxUI tagName, such as input. Built-in Elements like view, image, etc. cannot use this interface and must use their respective Create APIs.
parentComponentUniqueID	The Unique Component ID of the ComponentElement that creates this Element, which is a number.
info	Additional information required when creating the Element; this parameter can be omitted.

Return Value

The return value is currently a Value_RefCounted type of lepus::Value, which is implemented as base::scoped_refptr<Element>.

Note

base::scoped_refptr<Element> manages the lifecycle of the Element based on reference counting. Therefore, the frontend framework can hold this return value to manage the Element's lifecycle. The Element will only be destroyed when the frontend framework no longer holds it and the Element is removed from the tree.

Example

The frontend framework can process the corresponding frontend tags into render directives as follows.

<input />

// main-thread.js
let element = __CreateElement('input', 0, {});
