• Myron_B Problem overriding method in a derived class

  Why can't I override a virtual method and return a subclass of the parent type as in the code below. I.e. return ColorSwatch instead of Swatch so that the caller doesn't have to recast the return value. In fact if I don't make the method virtual/override I get the problem that the compiler then complains that the derived class ColorExists needs to use the new keyword because it is hiding the method in the parent class. What gives with this ...Show All

• iiiwabibitoiii VS 8 Performance makes it unuseable

  Hi, We have converted a large c# solution with 12 projects and about 60 Mb of code from VS7 to VS8 and find that working in the IDE is impossibly slow. We are running on a P4 3.2 Ghz 1 Mb RAM with Windows XP SP2 (clean install). It seems slow in all areas of development. The only area where perfomance is as good or better is in running the release code. So far it's a major backwards step when compared to VS 7. Is anyone else experiencing t ...Show All
