Question

the code below is saying a() cannot override a() as wee.a() is not marked virtual, abstract or override. Is there a a way around this? I need to have code inside the super method, but still want to override it!

public abstract class wee
{
  public void a()
  {

  }
}
public class dee : wee
{
  public override void a()
  {
  }
  public void b()
  {
  }
}

Answer 1

You need to mark wee.a virtual or abstract.

Virtual:

public abstract class wee
{
  public virtual void a()
  {

  }
}

public class dee : wee
{
  public override void a()
  {
  }
  public void b()
  {
  }
}

Abstract:

public abstract class wee
{
  public abstract void a();
}

public class dee : wee
{
  public override void a()
  {
  }
  public void b()
  {
  }
}
