| Standardization: | Extended | | Syntax kind: | Modifier |
This modifier has similar semantics to the virtual
keyword in C# or Java. For a member function or property,
explicitly indicates that subclasses may override (i.e. redefine) the member.
A documentation tool may enforce that the @virtual
, @override
, and/or @sealed
modifiers are consistently
applied, but this is not required by the TSDoc standard.
In the code sample below, Child.render()
overrides the virtual member Base.render()
:
class Base {
/** @virtual */
public render(): void {
}
/** @sealed */
public initialize(): void {
}
}
class Child extends Base {
/** @override */
public render(): void;
}
