Class

You design a VB .NET class using a class in PowerDesigner. VB .NET classes can contain events, variables, constants, methods, constructors and properties.

The following specific classes are also supported in PowerDesigner:

MustInherit class is equivalent to an abstract class. To design this type of class you need to create a class and select the Abstract check box in the General tab of the class property sheet.

Public MustInherit Class Customer
 Private Name As Char
 Private ID As Integer
End Class

NotInheritable class is equivalent to a final class. To design this type of class, you need to create a class and select the Final check box in the General tab of the class property sheet.

Public NotInheritable Class FinalClass
 Private At1 As Object
 Private At2 As Object
End Class
