The object-driven testing (ODT) functionality is deprecated. Do not use it to create new tests. It will be removed from the product in one of the future releases. As an alternative, you can create custom classes in your scripts. For more information, see Alternatives to the ODT functionality.

ClassesObj	An expression, variable or parameter that specifies a reference to a Classes object
Name	[in]	Required	String

Classes

Parameters

The method has the following parameter:

Name

Specifies the name of the class whose instance should be created.

Result Value

The instance of the specified class represented as an Object object.

Note: The class with the specified name must be previously declared using the Declare method. If this class is not declared, an error occurs.

Remarks

New_ is a stub method that calls Classes.New. You should use this method instead of Classes.New in your VB .NET Connected Applications. This is due to pecularities of the VB .NET language, which does not allow the Classes.New notation.
