I am looking to have a base class which provides that all inherited
classes MUST have some property, but that they can each define it as
whatever type they want. So maybe three class inherit from the base
class, each MUST have a [Type] property, but one defines it as
OracleType, one as SqlType and one as DB2Type, for example.
I know i can just declare it as Object, and then have the classes each
do typechecks on value assignment, but this is late-bound. I would like
some way to implement this so that the type-specificity of each class is
early-bound, allowing for compile time type checking.
Is this possible?
TIA-

This is what i want (generic code)...
Class BaseClass
Public MustOverride Property Type
... other class code ...
End Class
Class OraClass
Inherits BaseClass
Public Overrides Property Type As OracleType
... other class code ...
End Class
Class SqlClass
Inherits BaseClass
Public Overrides Property Type As SqlType
... other class code ...
End Class 1 1527
The only way I know of to do this is via polymorphism, if all the
types support a common interface. For example:
Class BaseClass
Public MustOverride Property Type As INativeDBType
... other class code ...
End Class
If OracleType and SqlType both implement interface INativeDBType, your
derived classes should work as declared below. Replace "INativeDBT ype"
with whatever the common interface is, if there is one. If not, I
don't think this can be done early-bound.

All,
Is there a way to force a derived class to contain an event. I have done
this with methods (i.e. Protected MustOverride Sub Test), but can I do
something similar with an event (Protected MustOverride Event MyEvent
doesn't work for obvious reasons)?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
This must be an often encountered problem. I want to declare an abstract

solution would be (i.e. I don't want to have to create instances of the

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
