Remarks

• For Visual Basic, the function was declared with MustOverride or Overrideable.

• For Visual C# and Visual C++, the function was declared with the virtual keyword.

• For JScript, the function was not declared with the static or final keywords; that is, the methods can be implicitly overridden.

Note

The values of code model elements such as classes, structs, functions, attributes, delegates, and so forth can be non-deterministic after making certain kinds of edits, meaning that their values cannot be relied upon to always remain the same.
