Override Methods

Question

Hi,

I want to override these methods below of Random Class. I know haow can I override a method but there is a problem here! We dont have the codes of virtual methods below in MSDN to change them and make override methods.

methods: DoubleByte, NextByte, Next, ToString

forexample: I want to override NextByte method of Random class. The NextByte method returns an array contain random numbers. now the method that I want to override NextByte method, should be like the NextBytes method with some changes, forexample what? could u help me to write override methods above?

Answer 1

If you're going to derive from the Random class and override the methods you've listed, then I'd take a look at the underlying code first.

This can be revealed using a disassembler such as Redgate Reflector (http://reflector.red-gate.com/download.aspx?TreatAsUpdate=1) which is no longer free or JetBrains dotPeek (http://www.jetbrains.com/decompiler/) which is free but hasn't yet reached version 1.0.

Answer 2

Hi,

Its better to know how to override a method in C#.

to override the NextByte,

define a method like this with virtual keyword in the class you want to use.

public virtual void NextBytes(byte[] buffer)
{
        // your code here
}
