VBScript’s default keyword

While I’m digging more and more into VBScript, I learned that you can use the default keyword to mark a default method in a class.

First, we define a class MyClass where is default sub is myDefaultSub.

public class MyClass

  public default sub myDefaultSub(p_value)
    response.write p_value
  end sub

  public sub notADefaultSub(p_value)
    response.write p_value
  end sub

end class

Second, we instantiate MyClass and we use it.

dim objMyClass : set objMyClass = new MyClass

objMyClass("This is calling the default sub.")

objMyClass.notADefaultSub("This is not the default sub.")

Cheers :-)
