Combining Class Library

[castor2003]

I am working with 2 class libraries. I wish to combine them without subclassing them. I search the VFP HELP TO NO AVAIL. Is my desire achievable?

Hi

1. First step Backup for your safety.

2. Now drag and drop all the classes from Class2 to Class1.
All the components of class2 will get copied and added to class1. Then at the end, you can discard class2 and delete it.

Is this what you need ?

If you need more stuff, then look in these topics..

a. A way to redefine your class and make it a subclass of another class.

b. A Utility to reset the Base classes chosen as a derived class in your forms and insert the inroduced classes.

Remember... Backup first before venturing

I opened two instances of the Class Browser; one for each class. However, it did not allow me to drag and droP. What did I do wrong?

Castor,

Two points:

- When you drag from the class browser, be sure that you are dragging the little icon to the left of the "class type" combo, not the icon next to the class name.

- You don't need two instances of the class browser. Just open both classes in the same instance.

- You don't need the class browser at all. I think what Ramani had in mind was to drag and drop within the project manager. That's what I always do. It works.

Thanks alot...it worked

I also found out that I could do it through code:


ADD CLASS SourceClass OF SourceClassLib TO targetClassLib.
