MSDN and intellisense shows the Add method of Hashtable being overridable
however when I use this code:
Public Class RAL
Inherits Hashtable
Public Overrides Sub Add(ByVal Key As String, ByVal Value As Object)
End Sub
I get the following 2 errors indicating that Add is Overloadable instead of
Overridable:
sub 'Add' cannot be declared 'Overrides' because it does not override a sub
in a base class.
sub 'Add' shadows an overloadable member declared in the base class
'Hashtable'. If you want to overload the base method, this method must be
declared 'Overloads'.
If possible I need to override this. Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,

Overriding it, means overriding it with the exact same signature method.
You have changed the type of the first parameter - therefore it would be
overloading the method.

Hi John,
Parameter "Key" must be of type "Object". Select "(Overrides )" from the
Class dropdown box above the text editor and then "Add" from the other
dropdown, this assures that the method has the same signature.

The Add method of the hashtable has both its arguments as 'Object'. You
cannot change the signature of a method when overriding it - you can only
change its implementation.
Imran.
John,
In addition to the other comments:
Rather then attempt to inherit from Hashtable, consider inheriting from
DictionaryBase.
As DictionaryBase wraps a Hashtable allowing you to put type safe methods on
your derived class.
Hope this helps

Hi,
To create a custom collection you inherit from collectionbase.
To create a custom hastable inherit from DictionaryBase. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...classtopic.asp

Thanks for all the quick informative replies. I inherited from
DictionaryBase rather than Hashtable as suggested and I've got a better,
more robust object. Thanks!

I have some questions about override in inheritance, and virtual members.
I know that you can you override a method by two ways in C#, one, is
overriding with the new keyword, like:
public new bool Equals(object obj) {}
Another is using the override keyword, like:
public override bool Equals(object obj) {}

Hi there,
According to documentation I read the ArrayList.IndexOf method uses the
Object.Equals method to loop through the items in its list and locate the
first index of an item that returns True.
Therefore, overriding the Equals method in the class definition of the items
I put in the ArrayList should make the IndexOf method use my version of the
Equals method?!

The Object class has five non final methods namely equals, hashCode, toString, clone, and finalize.
These were designed to be overridden according to specific general contracts. Other classes that make use of these methods assume that the methods obey these contracts so it is necessary to ensure that if your classes override these methods, they do so correctly.
In this article I'll take a look at the equals and hashCode methods.
