Title: VB uses Friend not Protected
Post by: swells on February 05, 2002, 12:41:52 pm

When defining the scope for properties and operations for VB output it only asks for public, protected, private scope. Whilst VB supports this concept it actually uses the Friend keyword for Protected.

Is there any way to amend the application to show/use Friend instead for VB output.

Hello,

When you say VB are you referring to VB.Net?  I have checked the syntax for both VB and VB.Net, VB.Net supports both Protected and Friend, yet VB seems to only support protected.  We will add the additional scope definitions (for friend, protectedfriend) to VB.Net soon to EA.  Thanks for the feedback.

regards,

I was indeed referring to VB6 - I noticed that a code import retained the Friend keyword when re-output - but not made availabily in the dialogs.
