TatClass.DefineNewProp Method
Registers a new property in the class, always creating a new TatProperty regardless of whether one with the same name already exists.
Remarks
Unlike DefineProp, DefineNewProp always creates a new TatProperty object. If a property named AName already exists, two objects for the same property will coexist in the class. The scripter always uses the last one added, so behavior is correct. The advantage is that you can destroy your newly created object and the previous one is still in effect. The disadvantage is excess memory use if called many times with the same name.
See DefineProp for more information.
