STATEMENT: Class
Implemented in version 5.0
Class ... End Class
The Class statement block is used to create a Class object.
You can only create (name) one Class object with each Class statement.
This ability to create your own Class is a significant expansion of the usefulness
of the VBScript language.
Within the block of the Class statement you can declare the members of the class, which are
variables, methods, and properties. Methods of the class are implemented by defining a Sub or
Function procedure, while properties are defined through the use of Property Get,
Property Let, and Property Set statements. Any member of a class may be declared as
either Public or Private, with a Public declaration being the default state.
Private members of a class are only accessable by other members of the same class, while Public
members are accessable by anything, inside or outside of the scope of the class.
The Class statement must always end with an End Class.
Example:
<%
Class DevGuruProducts
' Creating a private property using Get, Let, Set
Private mstrName
' Get
Public Property Get CustomerName()
CustomerName = mstrName
End Property
' Let
Public Property Let CustomerName(strName)
mstrName = strName
End Property
' Set
Public Property Set Guru(objGuru)
Private mobjGuru
Set mobjGuru = objGuru
End Property
' Creating a private method using a function
Private Function DevGuruProductName(intProduct)
Select Case intProduct
Case 1
DevGuruProductName = "dgCharge"
Case 2
DevGuruProductName = "dgList"
Case 3
DevGuruProductName = "dgReport"
End Function
End Class
