| Package root |
Specifies a currently open project to contain the class code and
other project code. Click Browse if you want
to select a project other than the current one (the default value).
|
| Package |
Optionally specifies a package name, corresponding to a
sub-folder of the package root, to contain the class file. Click
Browse or enter the folder path by
typing. A period (.) must separate each subfolder from its parent
folder in the path name. |
| Class name |
(Required) Specifies the name of the class. The name must begin
with a letter; spaces and most non-alphanumeric characters are not
allowed. The .cls extension will be appended automatically. |
| Final
|
If selected, specifies that inheritance from this class is
disallowed. A FINAL option is included in the
generated ABL code. A final class cannot be abstract.
|
| Abstract |
If selected, specifies that the class is abstract and cannot be
instantiated. An abstract class is designed to serve as a super
class from which other classes inherit and implement members.
Therefore, an abstract class cannot be final. |
| Widget pool |
If selected, specifies that a USE-WIDGET-POOL option will be
included in the generated ABL code. |
| Serializable |
If selected, marks the class as serializable by including the
SERIALIZABLE modifier in the generated ABL code. Note: If the class
inherits from a super class that is not serializable, then it
cannot be marked as serializable.
|
| Inherits |
Optionally specifies another class in the current project as a
super class from which the new class inherits state and behavior.
Click Browse or enter the class path by
typing. A period (.) must separate each node from its parent folder
in the path name. Note: The super class cannot be
generic.
|
| Implements |
Lets you optionally specify one or more interfaces in the current
project that the class implements. Click Add
and select the desired interfaces at the Interface Selection dialog.
Use the Remove button to remove an interface
from the list after adding it. Note: The class cannot
implement a generic interface.
|
| Generate default constructor |
If checked, specifies that the class is to include a default
constructor method. |
| Generate destructor |
If checked, specifies that the class is to include a destructor
method. |
| Generate super class constructors |
If checked, specifies that the class is to include all
constructor methods declared in the parent class. |
| Error-handling statement |
Adds one of the following error-handling statements to the
generated ABL code:
- Block level: Includes the BLOCK-LEVEL
ON ERROR UNDO, THROW statement in the generated ABL code
- Routine level: Includes the
ROUTINE-LEVEL ON ERROR UNDO, THROW statement in the
generated ABL code
|
| Throw a Not Implemented exception |
If selected, specifies that "METHOD NOT IMPLEMENTED" error code
will be added to stubs for members implemented via interface and
stubs for inherited abstract members. |
| Return a default value |
If selected, specifies that default return values will be added
to stubs for members implemented via interface and stubs for
inherited abstract members. |
| Description |
Lets you optionally enter a description for the class. This text
will appear in the file header. |
| Purpose |
Lets you optionally enter an explanation of the purpose of the
class. This text will appear in the file header. |
