The constructor method consists in the following set of procedures performed when a new object is created (class instantiation):

• creating a new instance (client object calls constructor method);
• register the new instance in the object collector;
• checking for object state to be OFF avoiding the same object to be created twice;
• allocation of instance memory;
• addition of the object to module’s linked list of objects;
• allocation and initialization of object properties;
• return instance ID to the client object;
