[DOTNET] explicit interface methods

[Ethan Smith]

Hi all,

When calling a method through an interface reference, is there any
functional or performance difference between having that implementation
being a public method, or an explicit interface method that calls the
public method?

E.g.:

Interface Foo{
        void Bar();
}

public class Baz : Foo{

        public Bar(){}

        // is there any advantage to explicitly
        // defining this function?
        Foo.Bar{
                This.Bar();
        }
}
