Class Properties and Methods Reference

This section contains reference entries that describe each built-in class property and method that ABL supports for working with ABL classes and structured error handling. Class properties and methods are mechanisms that allow you to monitor and control the behavior of class-based objects. The class properties and methods described in this section are provided by two types of OpenEdge classes:

Built-in ABL classes that support working with user-defined ABL classes

Built-in .NET classes that support working with .NET forms and controls

Some methods of built-in ABL classes also support .NET features, especially for handling .NET exceptions using ABL structured error handling.

For information on:

The built-in classes provided by OpenEdge for working with both ABL and .NET classes (including structured error handling), see the “Class and Interface Reference” section.

Accessing class properties in ABL, see the Class-based property access reference entry.

Calling class methods in ABL, see the Class-based method call reference entry.
