Get methods of inheritance class - JuicyProgramming - Jan 7, 2017

Hello,

I am building an application for my school project and I am trying to loop through a list of Cars.

A BMW is a Car.

I am looking to do something with the attribute I have in the BMW class but I am looping through a list cars so I am unable to get the attribute only the BMW has.

if (_carList.ElementAt(idx) is BMW)

then do something with that BMW object.

The Car class only has 2 attributes but the BMW class has another one. I am trying to get the specific one for the BMW but I am only able to get the 2 car attributes. I am sure there is a quick fix for this.

Anyone? Thanks :)
Have a nice day.

Supposing you have a situation like this

Code 
class Obj

{

    public string p1, p2;

}

class Obj2 : Obj

{

    public string p3;

}

When you check if Obj is also Obj2 you can simply alter the casting

Code 
if (olist.ElementAt(idx) is Obj2)

    {

        var o = (Obj2)olist.ElementAt(idx);

        Console.WriteLine(o.p3);

    }

And you should have an Obj2 with his properties
