STATEMENT: Property Get
Implemented
in version 5.0
Property Get ... End Property
The Property Get statement block allows you to perform a procedure
that will return the value of a property.
The Property Get statement block can only be used inside a
Class statement block and cannot be used inside of any other
procedure. There are two other related statements that also can only
be used within a Class block, Property Let and Property
Set that, respectively, permit you to assign the value of a property
and to set a reference to an object.
The Property Get statement allows you to declare the name of
the procedure, to accept and change the values of optional arguments,
and to perform a series of statements that ultimately return the value
of a property.
By default, the Property Get procedure is Public, but
you can declare it to be Private. You can use the optional Exit
Property statement to immediately exit the from inside the Property
Get procedure, but do not forget to assign the return value before
doing such an exit.
Note how the returned value is assigned to the procedure name, "ProcedureName"
in the syntax example. It can be assigned from an expression or set
to an object.
The End Property is required.
Syntax:
[ Public | Private ] Property Get ProcedureName
[arguments, ..., ...]
Rem You may place code here
[ ProcedureName = expression | Set
ProcedureName = expression ]
[ Exit Property ]
Rem You may place code here
[ ProcedureName = expression | Set
ProcedureName = expression ]
End Property
