Overload properties

[LottoactiveX]

Hi all,

I've got a problem overloading properties and I don't know why!

If I need the same property with different arguments VB.NET let me do

1)
Public Property A() As Integer
Public Property A(ByVal b As Boolean) As Integer
Public Property A(ByVal c As String) As Integer

2)
Public Override Property A() As Integer
Public Override Property A(ByVal b As Boolean) As Integer
Public Override Property A(ByVal c As String) As Integer

These two syntaxes are the same?

Why if I call Class1.A() from a C# code sometimes I get just A() or A(b) or A(c), sometimes A(), A(b) and A(c) (how I expect!) and sometimes I must call the internal name get_A()/set_A(), get_A(b)/set_A(b)...

This is too strange to me!

Don't completely understand the question.

Class2 should be inherting Class1. Also, in class one you should use the syntax to let the compiler know that property X is overridable using the "Overridable" keyword.

I don't understand the question either, but another possibility is...


When you override a method from a base class in a derived class. The type of object you create will determine which class you actually call. If you create a base class object, you will call the base class method. If you create a derived class object, you will call the derived class method.

This may or may not be what you're looking for, but I took a shot.
