CLI and calling the base method from the derived method

[DaTurk]

Just a syntax question, how do I call the parent's method I've
overridden from the child in syntax. I notice there is no "base"
Keyword. Thanks.

Prepend the class name like so:

baseClassName::TheMethod(a, b, c);

Use the name of the base class. In C++, multiple inheritance is allowed, so
the syntax has to account for that, even for single inheritance classes like
CLI ref classes. However, there is a special Microsoft __super keyword
which searches all base classes.
