Remarks

Get default object of a class. Gets the default object of a class.

In most cases, class default objects should not be modified. This method therefore returns an immutable pointer. If you need to modify the default object, use GetMutableDefault instead.

Returns

Class default object (CDO).

Parameters

Parameter	Description
Class	The class to get the CDO for.
