Interface in OOP using C#:
We have discusses about interface in our Previous Post, If you do not read that learn the Basic Concepts of OOP in C#.
Now We will discuss about the two types of implementation od Interface in OOP, Implicit Implementation and Explicit Implementation.
Interface : Implicit Implementation:
If a class implements two interfaces
that contain a member with the same signature, then implementing that member on
the class will cause both interfaces to use that member as their
implementation. For example:
interface IControl //1st Interface
{
void
Paint();
}
interface ISurface // 2nd Interface
{
void
Paint();
}
class SampleClass : IControl, ISurface //A Class inheriting both Interfaces at a time to implement
{
//
Both ISurface.Paint and IControl.Paint call
this method. means that if any interface object will cann Paint() method, the body of below Paint() method will be called
public void
Paint()
{
}
}
Interface : Explicit Implementation:
If the two interface members do not
perform the same function, it is
possible to implement an interface member explicitly—creating a class member
that is only called through the interface, and is specific to that interface.
This is accomplished by naming the class
member with the name of the interface and a period. For example:
public class SampleClass : IControl, ISurface ////A Class inheriting both Interfaces at a time to implement
{
void IControl.Paint() // Specializing it for IControl Interface that if Object of IControl Interface Calls Paint() method ,
{
System.Console.WriteLine("IControl.Paint"); // if u have written "using System;" then wroting System here not necessary.
}
void ISurface.Paint() // Specializing it for ISurface Interface that if Object of ISurface Interface Calls Paint() method ,
{
System.Console.WriteLine("ISurface.Paint");
}
}
