Question

I’m trying to override an overridden method (if that makes sense!) in C#.

I have a scenario similar to the below, but when I have a breakpoint in the SampleMethod() in the “C” class it’s not being hit, whilst the same breakpoint in the “B” method is being hit.

public class A
{
      protected virtual void SampleMethod() {}
}

public class B : A 
{
      protected override void SampleMethod()
      {
           base.SampleMethod(); 
      }
}

public class C : B
{
      protected override void SampleMethod() 
      {
           base.SampleMethod(); 
      }
}

Thanks in advance!

Edit:

Ok, the context would help:

This is in the context of a composite control so class A inherits from CompositeControl and calls SampleMethod() after overriding the CreateChildControls() method.

Answer 1

Without seeing the code that calls SampleMethod, my guess would be that you have an object of type B and call SampleMethod on that.
