    c++ virtual overriding
    I wanted to have confirmation about the following things:Virtual Mechanism:I f I have a base class A and it has a Virtual method, then in the derived class generally, we do not include the virtual statement in the function declaration. But what does a virtual mean when included at the dervied class definition.class A { public: virtual void something(); }class B:public A { public: virtual void something(); }Does, that mean that we want to override the method somethign in the classes that derive

    java polymorphism overriding
    Polymorphism allows the programmer either to inherit, override or to overload an instance method of Parent Class. But, it won’t allow to make an instance method of parent class as more restrictive in child class. i.e it wont allow to use same name of parent class instance method, to declare as private in the child class.Also JVM identifies the parent class version of an instance method, if child class didn’t override it.Similarly why don’t JVM identifies the parent class version of an instance m

    objective-c cocoa overriding strong-typing loose-typing
    I have a class called AddressCard from an example in “Programming in Objective C”, and I’m implementing a isEqual: method.The signature of this method in NSObject uses loose typing for the parameter:- (BOOL)isEqual:(id)anObjectOTOH, the sample code in the book uses strict typing:- (BOOL) isEqual:(AddressCard *) aCardI’m not sure I fully understand what the compiler does in this case. I tried comparing an AddressCard to a NSString ([aCard isEqual: @”Foo”]) expecting either a runtime error (if the

    .net inheritance f# overriding
    The question is simple and. although it is obvious the answer, I had to face a strange situation where the fsharp told me something a bit strange. Here’s the story:The question is: Does F# automatically make every type inherit the Object class? I suppose YES and I am certain of this because there would be so many complications if that were not the case.But here’s a fact. I was writing this piece of code:type MyType =val myval: intoverride self.ToString = “Hello MyType”Well, fsharp compiler told

    java class inheritance overriding
    Ok, maybe this is a stupid question. But i’m just wondering if this can be done in java.abstract public class ParentClass<T> { abstract public T getTest(); }in the subclasspublic class SubClass extends ParentClass<MyObject> {public MyObject getTest() {// I can return the object with class MyObjectreturn null;} }My question is can I return the class type in the child method? I mean, is it can be done by adding some code in the ParentClass, so I can do this below?For examplepublic cl

    java polymorphism overloading overriding method-dispatch
    I do know the syntactical difference between overriding and overloading. And I also know that overriding is run-time polymorphism and overloading is compile-time polymorphism. But my question is: “Is overloading is really compile-time polymorphism? Is the method call really solving at compile time?”. To clarify my point, let’s consider an example class.public class Greeter {public void greetMe() {System.out.println(“Hello”);}public void greetMe(String name) {System.out.println(“Hello ” + name);}

    I was testing a code when I faced something strange that I could not figure out why this is happening. So I will give a simple example of what happened there.Consider these classespublic class A {public void print(A a) {System.out.println(“A”);} }public class B extends A {public void print() {System.out.println(“B”);} }public class C extends B {public void print(A a) {System.out.println(“C”);} }public class E extends C {public void print(E e) {System.out.println(“E”);} }Now in my main method I h

    c# interface static abstract-class overriding
    I have one abstract class -let’s say myBase. And I want all the classes derived from myBase to have one static field called public static List<string> MyPArameterNames { get {return _myParameterNames;} }So, every child class can tell what parameter names it uses; I want static because I do not want to create an instance just for this.How can I achieve this?

    java android inheritance override overriding
    Possible Duplicate:When do you use Javas @Override annotation and why? Newbie question – I’m writing my first Android app (its my 2nd Java app). I noticed that in examples the onCreate() method has the @Override annotation, but I haven’t used that annotation and it seems to work fine.Is it just good practice to use the @Override annotation or am I setting myself up for problems. What about the other inherited methods – onPause etc?

    java deprecated overriding
    I want to remove a method from a class that is present in it’s super class. I can deprecate the superclass method using the @Deprecated annotation, but it is still accessible in the subclass.Eg: public class Sample {void one() {}void two() {}@Deprecatedvoid three() {} }class Sample2 extends Sample {@Overridevoid one() {}public static void main() {Sample2 obj = new Sample2();obj.one();obj.two();obj.three();// I do not want to access this method through the sample 2 object.} }While using the Sampl

    java oop polymorphism overloading overriding
    I have been coding few examples on method overloading and method overridng. Method overloading is static polymorphism and overriding is dynamic polymorphism.So any error related to overloading will be caught at the compile time..Correct ?or are there any scenarios when a runtime exception is thrown because of incorrect overloading — I Doubt Any errors related to method overriding( — incase when the child class method has same name as Base class and same arguments as of base class —- )will be

    polymorphism overriding method-overriding
    What is the difference between the two?A super class having myMethod(int a) and an inheriting class having the same method, Is this overriding or polymorphism?I am clear with the difference b/w overriding and overloading, but the polymorphism and overriding seems the same. Or are they?

    objective-c overriding super
    I have a class A and a class B which is a subclass of A. Both have the following methods:-(void)anotherMethod{// implementation of A or B }-(void)aMethod{@try{[super aMethod];}@catch(NSException *e){}[self anotherMethod]; }Now: if I call [instanceOfClassB aMethod] the instruction [self anotherMethod] contained in A’s implementation of aMethod calls B’s anotherMethod (since it’s overridden) instead of A’s one. How can I make A’s implementation of aMethod call A’s implementation of anotherMethod?

    java inheritance overriding
    This is the code in Java language:class A{A() { print(); }void print() { System.out.println(“A”); } } class B extends A{int i = Math.round(3.5f);public static void main(String[] args){A a = new B();a.print();}void print() { System.out.println(i); } }It prints 0, 4. But why does from the super class A within constructor you invoke subclass print method? I see that the print method is overridden, but in fact the ‘print’ method has been called from the superclass… That is the drill in order

    c++ subclassing overriding
    Normal overriding would work this way:class Fruit { public:string color(); };string Fruit::color() {return “Unkown”; };class Apple : public Fruit { public:string color(); };string Apple::color() {return “Green”; };Now, you’ld call this like:Apple *apple = new Apple(); std::cout << apple->color();This will output Green, which is correct! However, running it in the following situation (which is just an example, of course):Apple *apple = new Apple(); printHealthy(apple);// Method printHeal

    java android inheritance overriding
    Sometimes when I override methods, I get an exception the first time it’s called like below:05-31 21:32:04.266: E/AndroidRuntime(28471): android.support.v4.app.SuperNotCalledException: Fragment AnalFragment{41795860 #1 id=0x7f070002} did not call through to super.onDestroy()Why are we forced to call super.method()? It makes sense that there are obligations by the parent class, but more importantly, how do we know that a method requires super to be called, rather than waiting for it to crash?

Why?

    javascript overriding
    I’m having a spot of trouble overriding the document object for my JavaScript.function myFunction(document) {[code] }works fine. Butfunction myFunction(newDocument) {document=newDocument[code] }does not. So far I’m managing fine using functions with the former method, but I’d rather just override the document object once and forget about it. If anyone could show me the proper way to globally override the document object, I’d appreciate it.Thank you.

    ObjC has a very unique way of overriding methods. Specifically, that you can override functions in OSX’s own framework. Via “categories” or “Swizzling”. You can even override “buried” functions only used internally.Can someone provide me with an example where there was a good reason to do this? Something you would use in released commercial software and not just some hacked up tool for internal use?For example, maybe you wanted to improve on some built in method, or maybe there was a bug in a fr
