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
