Inheriting from System.Net.Sockets.Socket problems.

[Tony Caduto]

Hi,
I was trying to create a new class derived from System.Net.Sockets.Socket
and it seemed to be working until I tried to use the accept method.
The accept method returns a Socket object and for some reason you can't
typecast it as the derived class.
Everything else worked fine, I was able to add new methods etc etc

Is there a way around this?

Thanks,

Try overriding the "Accept" method to return one of your derived class objects.
