Over Riding New?

[TisMe]

Hi All,

I am (As you may have seen from my last two posts!) converting from VB
to C#

At the moment, I am stuck with over riding the New method of my class.

I am trying to have a new which allows the user to pass the context of
the current HTTPApp (This class will be used by a web app)

Heres what I have so far, this doesnt work...Visual studio underlines
the open bracket with message:
"Invalid token '(' in class, struct, member or interface declaration"

public new void(HttpApplication currentHTTPApp) {
_HttpApplication = currentHTTPApp;
}

Any help here will be appreciated!

Cheers!

There's no such method as "new" - there are constructors. You don't
override a constructor, you just provide constructors for your class.
For instance:

public class Test
{
// This is a constructor
public Test(string x)
{
}
}

There's more about constructors at
