Use the New ABL Class wizard to create a derived class

In Developer Studio, you can create a derived class using the New ABL Class wizard. The New ABL Class wizard helps you locate the super class you want to use. After you select the super class, the New ABL Class wizard generates the class definition statement with the inherits key word and the name of the super class.

Follow these steps in Developer Studio to create a derived class:

Step

Action

1

Right-click on the folder you want to add a derived class and then select New > ABL Class. The New ABL Class wizard opens.

2

Enter the name of the derived class.

3

Click Browse in the Inherits field to select the super class. The Super Class Selection window opens.

4

Type the filter text to find the super class.

5

Click OK.

6

If you want the class to have a default constructor and/or destructor, select the corresponding check boxes.

7

Click Finish. This creates the derived class with a statement that defines the derived class and the super class it inherits from.
