Implement Abstract Base Class

IntelliSense provides an option to help you implement members of an abstract base class automatically while working in the Code Editor. Normally, to implement members of an abstract base class requires creating a new method definition for each method of the abstract base class in your derived class. Using IntelliSense, after typing the name of an abstract base class in a class declaration, a smart tag is displayed. The smart tag gives you the option to implement the base class methods automatically. For more information, see How to: Implement Abstract Base Classes.

The method stubs that are generated by the Implement Abstract Base Class feature are modeled by the code snippet defined in the file MethodStub.snippet. Code Snippets are modifiable. For more information, see How to: Manage Code Snippets.
