Hi,
Just check the other posts here, for a non english speaking person they are
not that meaningful in the first place. also virtual & abstract are
universaly used , all the books use them as well as all the mainstream
languages.
IMHO vb should take the chances of a new start and be more like the rest of
the languages when it transisionate to managed code. It's fairly common that
you need to modify or even program in either language, I do that all the
time lately and sometimes I just forget what the virtual's equivalent is
in vb.net
but again, nothing is worse than the _ at the end of the line to split an
instruction, does anybody has any info of why it was carried out to vb.net ?
Herfried K. Wagner said:I believe 'Overridable' is more meaningful than 'virtual' and
'MustInherit' is more meaningful than 'abstract'. 'virtual' and
'abstract' are far too generic and not self-explaining.
