A class library is a pre-coded object-oriented programming (OOP) template collection. Both network and desktop applications use class libraries. Class libraries contain code for graphical user interface (GUI) elements such as buttons, icons, scroll bars and windows as well as other non-GUI components.
Class libraries enhance code reuse by providing implementations of repetitive jobs. Writing program applications from scratch can be an extremely detailed and expensive process. Class libraries include all essential classes in a previously written coded format, which not only simplifies programming but also increases code quality. Class template customization is implemented according to specific programming requirements.
