Owww! I've taken an arrow! Yikes! Another arrow! I'm hit. I'm down. But I'm still crawling forward... Yes, the Pioneer spirit strives onward.... <lol>
-- Brent Rector, .NET Wise Owl Demeanor for .NET - an obfuscation utility http://www.wiseowl.com/Products/Products.aspx -----Original Message----- From: Serge Lidin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, May 20, 2002 3:49 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [DOTNET] Partition II Metadata Spec question This is a deficiency in the current version of the Loader -- explicit overrides (through MethodImpls) cannot be chained. At the same time, implicit overrides can be chained alright, which creates an assymetry between explicit and implicit overrides. Partition II says nothing about limitations on explicit override chaining, which implies there should be no such limitations. The only limitation specified in Partition II is that the same v-table slot can't be overridden with more than one method, and in the case Brent is citing this doesn't happen. Clearly, this deficiency needs fixing. And I extend our profound thanks to Brent, The Intrepid Vigilante of Partition II and Surrounding Territories! --Serge You can read messages from the DOTNET archive, unsubscribe from DOTNET, or subscribe to other DevelopMentor lists at http://discuss.develop.com.
