Is there some way of simply overriding methods in Python so that they do

In both of these cases there are no methods to be overridden. You're just
defining methods which you want to use for the event handlers. You need
to connect those methods to the event handlers somewhere.
OK hang on a second - WHICH methods do you mean precisely - In the base
class or the overriden class?
Bc when I changed declaration of the method to "protected virtual" in
the Form1.cs, the inherited class calls my Ipython method all right -
that looks like overriding to me, at least when looking at it from the
outside and not looking "under covers" what's happening.
Your C# code is
working probably because the connection of the event handlers is in the
generated code in InitializeComponent().
It is there all right:
public void InitializeComponent()
{
..
this.comboBox1.SelectedIndexChanged += new
System.EventHandler(this.comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged);
}
This is one of the reasons why I suggest WPF over WinForms. In WPF you can
declare the event handlers in the XAML and we can wire them up to you. In
our IronPython 2.7 source code I recently added a clr.LoadComponent method which
does this.
Well that certainly makes WPF worth considering. Questions:
1. when IPY 2.7 is to be released?
2. Documentation. This sort of worries me: where do I get the detailed
info how to use this stuff? So far I have developed only in CPython/Linux...
