Just to add on to the discussion:<o:p></o:p>
Why would someone create a class if it can�t be
instantiated? (Private constructor means the class can�t be
instantiated!)<o:p></o:p>
That is exactly what is desired. It�s a
practice to use such constructor, in a class, where there are only static
members. But the added problem here is that it is abstract class.
VB (C# too) appears to be unhappy with this; It insists a call to base
constructor on derived class. I tried the same thing in VC++, its working
fine as follows:<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
using namespace System;<o:p></o:p>
__gc class MyClass : public System::Drawing::Brush<o:p></o:p>
{<o:p></o:p>
public:<o:p></o:p>
MyClass(void)<o:p></o:p>
{}<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
static String* MyMethod(){<o:p></o:p>
return
S"Test";<o:p></o:p>
}<o:p></o:p>
}<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
I know that this still isn�t answering Manoj�s
second question. No idea how they (MS) derived SolidBrush from Brush!<o:p></o:p>
Away from this, what is that you were trying to achieve by
extending Drawing.Brush? There appears (through object browser) to be
nothing useful in there!<o:p></o:p>
