Class General Editor

Name

Specifies the name of the class. If this class is a generic class, its type arguments are specified as part of the name. For information on how to use generic types, refer to Generics (C# Programming Guide)

The following naming rules apply to the class name:

• The name must begin with an alphabetic character, and consist entirely of alphanumeric characters.
• The name must be unique within the driver.

Base class

Specifies the name of the base class, if any.

Target frameworks

Specifies the target frameworks supported by the class. Typically, this will be set to Inherited, which indicates that the class supports the same target frameworks as the driver. However, you can override this setting to specify a minimum target framework or a specific set of target frameworks. Nimbus will update the driver code accordingly with #if statements to selectively include or exclude code based on the target framework.
