Compiler says I am not implementing my interface, but I am?

Question

Okay, I have two namespaces. One contains my interface and one contains the implementing class. Like this:

namespace Project.DataAccess.Interfaces
{
    public i         


        

Answer 1

You're not mentioning in your class declaration that you'll be implementing IAccount.

Your class declaration should look like this:

class Account : IAccount
{ 
  //Implementation here.
}

Also, what's happening is that you're using the "default" protection level for Account, and that protection level isn't "public", but an Interface (IAccount) defines public methods by default.

So, when you preface both the Class and Method names with public you're actually implementing the interface. Likewise, when you declare SomeMethod as

IAccount.SomeMethod()
{
   //Implementation Here
}

what you're doing is Explicitly Implementing the interface.
