Patrice Collardez updated CMIS-936:
-----------------------------------
Attachment: virtual-public-api.patch
Proposed patch for the public API
> The public API should be declared virtual
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: CMIS-936
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CMIS-936
> Project: Chemistry
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: dotcmis
> Affects Versions: DotCMIS 0.6, DotCMIS 0.7
> Environment: Windows 7, DotNet 3.5
> Reporter: Patrice Collardez
> Attachments: virtual-public-api.patch
>
>
> The public API of DotCMIS is not completely declared virtual, and it prevents
> the polymorphism to work as expected, especially when creating a new
> ObjectFactory and specialized objects.
> Long explanation:
> With Java, every method is implicitly declared virtual, therefore overriding
> a method in a subclass is as simple as a redeclaration and the polymorphism
> works as intended whatever the cast of the subclass to any of its parent
> class or interface.
> With C#, every method is not declared virtual, therefore redeclaring a method
> in a subclass does not make the polymorphism works: the first declaration of
> the method is used considering the cast level in the inheritance graph.
> In order to have the same behavior with C# as the one we have with Java,
> every method should be declared "virtual" and every redeclaration should be
> declared "override".
