Thread view:

hi

i have an abstract class with an abstract method

[CODE]import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
abstract public class Protocol {

   protected Passerelle passerelle;

   public Passerelle getPasserelle(){
       return passerelle;
   }

   public void setPasserelle(Passerelle pass){
       passerelle=pass;
   }

   public Protocol(){
       passerelle = new Passerelle();
   }
   abstract public String processInput(String theInput, Socket
socket);
}  [/CODE]

i tried to had

[CODE]
abstract public String processInput(String theInput, Socket socket,
Object obj);
abstract public String processInput(String theInput, Object obj);
[/CODE]

we can't have some abstract method with the same name... java don't
like that...

are there a way to do that?

thanks

There is nothing qrong with having overloaded abstract methods with
same name, different parameters. Following works fine for me:

bstract public class Protocol {

   protected Passerelle passerelle;

   public Passerelle getPasserelle(){
       return passerelle;
   }

   public void setPasserelle(Passerelle pass){
       passerelle=pass;
   }

   public Protocol(){
       passerelle = new Passerelle();
   }
   abstract public String processInput(String theInput, Socket socket,

           Object obj);
   abstract public String processInput(String theInput, Object obj);

}

What is the error you are getting?
