ASIl extends the <strong>virtual</strong> concept to events. Anything declared as <strong><a class="" href="/p/asil/wiki/keywords-abstract/">abstract</a></strong> or in an <strong><a class="" href="/p/asil/wiki/keywords-interface/">interface</a></strong> is implicitly <strong>virtual</strong>. Methods, properties, and events that are <strong>virtual</strong> can be made <strong><a class="" href="/p/asil/wiki/keywords-final/">final</a></strong> which means any later derived classes aren't allowed to override them. Even if a <strong><a class="" href="/p/asil/wiki/keywords-property/">property</a></strong> isn't <strong>virtual</strong>, one of it's accessors can be made <strong>virtual</strong>. For more on use of the <strong>virtual</strong> keyword, see <a class="alink" href="/p/asil/wiki/Members%20and%20methods/">[Members and methods]</a>. Related keywords beside those mentioned above include <strong><a class="" href="/p/asil/wiki/keywords-class/">class</a></strong>, <strong><a class="" href="/p/asil/wiki/keywords-get/">get</a></strong>, and <strong><a class="" href="/p/asil/wiki/keywords-set/">set</a></strong>.</p></div>Will PittengerThu, 20 Feb 2014 22:47:36 -0000https://sourceforge.net1d755939c4887ae6072eac5873b89e0586b57af6
