Inheritance question

[Naveen Mukkelli]

Hey,

I want to inherit an abstract class and MessageWindow class.
can we do that?

for example,

abstract class SomeClass
{
public void SomeMethod()
{
// do something
}
}

can I create a new class which inherits both the above abstract class and
MessageWindow class?

public class MyClass : SomeClass, MessageWindow
{

}

Kindly let me know,

Cheers,

Naveen.

Re: Inheritance question

no for that you'd need an interface

e.g.

public interface IMessageWindow {
public void DoSomething();
}

public class MyClass : SomeClass, IMessageWindow
{
// .... other methods/constructir etc.

#region IMessageWindow implementation

public void DoSomething() {
}

#endregion
}

this way classes implementing the interface are forced to implement certain
methods.

Re: Inheritance question

Just to expand on the answer below, you can inherit from only one class, but
as many interfaces as you like.

RE: Inheritance question

hi
C# does not support multiple inheritance.
You can inherit only from one class .
But you can implement multiple interfaces
