You can add properties to a class as follows:
- Select to launch the Add Property wizard.
- Fill in the appropriate information for the new property. Help text appears in the title pane to describe the purpose of the field that has focus.
-
Click Generate. The editor inserts the property where
you specify. The Insertion position field gives you the
following options:
- Alphabetical order - Insert the code prototype at a position
determined by its name. Case is ignored.Note: This feature does not sort the procedures, functions, methods, or properties that already exist in the file. If they are already ordered alphabetically by name, the code is inserted at the correct position in the list. Otherwise, the code is inserted at the first valid alphabetic position found during a top-to-bottom lookup.
- Cursor position - Insert the code prototype at the current position of the cursor in the file.
- First/Last - Insert the code prototype immediately before/after the first/last item currently in the class.
- After name - Insert the code prototype after the named item.
- Alphabetical order - Insert the code prototype at a position
determined by its name. Case is ignored.
