Classes

[Simon4VB]

May I ask how to solve this question please.

Public Class Class1
Public mSize As Integer
End Class

1) How to define another method inside the Class1 that allows other programs to retreive the value of mSize

and

2) How to disallow client programs from directly accessing mSize.

Thanks in advance.

I would suggest that you have a quick read of this webpage;
Understanding Properties in VB.NET
Although to give you a brief understanding to have a method inside of the class to give you access to mSize you could do this;

Public Function getSize() As Integer
    Return mSize
End Function

Although to be honest I would actually recommend using a Property instead of a method as that is what they're there for, so instead you could use;

Public Property Size() As Integer
    Get
        Return mSize
    End Get
    Set(ByVal Value As Integer)
        mSize = Value
    End Set
End Property

As for the second part, I would suggest that you have a read of this;

Anyway I hope that this helps
