'Type 1': return type must be 'Type 2' to match overridden member 'Member Name'An attempt was made to change the return type in a method override. To resolve this error, make sure both methods declare the same return type.
Example
The following sample generates CS0508.
// CS0508.cs
// compile with: /target:library
abstract public class Clx
{
public int i = 0;
// Return type is int.
abstract public int F();
}
public class Cly : Clx
{
public override double F()
{
return 0.0; // CS0508
}
}
