[RESOLVED] Exposing an instance property as shared

[boops boops]

Suppose I have a class of objects called Porky with a property called IsHuge:

Public Class Porky
   Public Property IsHuge As Boolean
End Class

Now I want to make a special kind of Porky -- let's call it UberPorky -- for which I want to change ALL instances to either IsHuge or not IsHuge. What I'd like to do is this:

Public Class UberPorky
Inherits Porky
   Public Overrides Shared Property IsHuge As Boolean
       Get
           Return MyBase.IsHuge
       End Get
       Set(value As Boolean)
           MyBase.IsHuge = Value
       End Set
   End Property
End Class

The trouble is, I can't do that. I'm not allowed to reference MyBase or Me in a Shared property. So can anyone advise me on the right way to do it?
