@override annotation
@override annotation explicitly tells the compiler you are trying to override a parent class method . All kinds of IDE uses override annotation to help the developer in various way . Also it improves the readability of the code
void main() {
// @override annotation
var manager1 = Manager();
manager1.id =1;
manager1.firstname="John";
manager1.lastname="Doe";
manager1.dayworked=30;
manager1.project ="Alpha";
print(manager1.salary(20));
}
class Employee {
int id;
int dayworked;
String firstname;
String lastname;
String fullname() {
return this.firstname + " " + this.lastname;
}
int salary(int perDaywage) {
return (this.dayworked * perDaywage);
}
}
// Manager Class
class Manager extends Employee {
//property
String project;
//Method
String manageproject(){
return "Managing project " + " " + this.project;
}
@override
int salary(int perDaywage) {
return ((this.dayworked * perDaywage)+30);
}
}
Although it's not mandatory but it's good practice to use @override annotation . When you will be using an IDE , almost all the time @override annotation is automatically added ,so you don't need to worry about it
