Question by MONKYfapper · Nov 04, 2016 at 08:35 AM · c#programmingclassoverrideinitialize

Initialize Variable vs override in public class

 public class IShoes {
     public string name {get; protected set;}
     public virtual int NUM { get; protected set; }
 }
 
 public class WornShoe : IShoes {
     public WornShoe() {
         name = "Worn Shoes";
     }
     public override NUM {get{return 10;}}
 }

i am unsure which one to use, i can either declare everything in public WornShore() (ex: name) or to override and virtual everything (ex: NUM). Can anyone give me advice on the advantages/disadvantages of either way? or suggest a different way.

i am sorry if i use the wrong terms

First of all IShoes seems to be an interface. If yes, change it form public class to public interface.

I doubt you need accessor overriding. Simply setting the variable as you do in the WornShoe constructor is enough. It would overcomplicate the code unnecessarily.

 public interface IShoes {
 }
  
 public abstract class AbstractShoe : IShoes {
     public string name {get; protected set;}
     public int NUM { get; protected set; }
 }
 
 public class WornShoe : AbstractShoes {
     public WornShoe() {
         name = "Worn Shoes";
         NUM = 10;
     }
 }
