Inheritance

[rn5a]

A class (derived) can be defined/derived from an existing class (base)
by inheriting the properties & methods of the base class but can an
object inherit the features of another object?

Thanks

Hello (e-mail address removed),

A class (derived) can be defined/derived from an existing class (base)
by inheriting the properties & methods of the base class but can an
object inherit the features of another object?

I'm not sure I understand your question. Can you elaborate more? Maybe give
some examples of how this would work?

If the object is part of the hierarchy, it does implement *features* methods
properties etc that are not marked private. I hope i understood you
correctly

The world "object" is the name of a .Net Framework class, the base class for
all other classes. "object" is also a term that means an instance of a
class. I hope that clears up any confusion.
