Virtual Methods

[comp1mp]

I do not see anything which would allow me to express a virtual method in EA 6. AM I missing something?

Create the method in the Operations dialog. Make sure you check the Abstract box, and then save. That should do the trick.

Problem is, abstract is distinct from virtual, at least in C#. They mean two very different things.

Sorry about that, I should know better.

Here's the correct way:

• Create the method as before, ignoring the Abstract check box (unless you want it to be so marked, of course).
  
• Save the method; you will notice that the Advanced button becomes enabled.
  
• Click the Advanced button and check Virtual on the resulting dialog.
  

Hope I didn't lose too many points.
