System.Drawing.Region Describes the interior of a graphics shape composed of rectangles and paths. This class cannot be inherited.
System.Drawing.StringFormat Encapsulates text layout information (such as alignment, orientation and tab stops) display manipulations (such as ellipsis insertion and national digit substitution) and OpenType features. This class cannot be inherited.
System.EnterpriseServices.Internal.AssemblyLocator Locates an assembly and returns information about its modules.
System.EnterpriseServices.RegistrationHelper Installs and configures assemblies in the COM+ catalog. This class cannot be inherited.
System.IO.FileSystemInfo Provides the base class for both FileInfo and DirectoryInfo objects.
System.IO.IsolatedStorage.IsolatedStorage Represents the abstract base class from which all isolated storage implementations must derive.
System.IO.Stream Provides a generic view of a sequence of bytes.
System.IO.TextReader Represents a reader that can read a sequential series of characters.
System.IO.TextWriter Represents a writer that can write a sequential series of characters. This class is abstract.
