Error message - I really dont know what it means

[azae]

Can anyone tell me what does it mean?

It come out on Build Error Message.. after I press F5...

 

C:\Project\FileCopier\Form1.cs(245): 'FileCopier.Form1.Dispose()' : cannot override inherited member 'System.ComponentModel.Component.Dispose()' because it is not marked virtual, abstract, or override

 

How do I overcome it? So program can run smoothly

It looks like you are trying to override the Dispose method but not getting it quite right. Post the relevant code and perhaps we may be able to give you a hand.

I did not know you could override dispose methods...I thought you could only override finalize?

[azae]

ok here is the code

 

/// 
	protected override void Dispose( bool disposing )
	{
		if( disposing )
		{
			if (components != null) 
			{
				components.Dispose();
			}
		}
		base.Dispose( disposing );
	}

What class are you inheriting from? It looks like a form but that code should be fine...

Also what version of VS are you using?

Does this problem go away (briefly) when you close and reopen the IDE, and is your project "relatively" large? (over 80k lines in total)

 

If so, you might want to look at:

I had this problem (bloody annoying!) but the hotfix seems to have cured it completely.
