How can I hide a base class public property in the derived class

Question

I want to hide the base public property(a data member) in my derived class:

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        b obj = new b()         


        

Answer 1

If you use an interface instead of a base class for defining the property, you could implement the property explicitly. The would require an explicit cast to the interface to use the property.

public interface IMyInterface
{
    string Name { get; set; }
}

public class MyClass : IMyInterface
{

    string IMyInterface.Name { get; set; }

}
