How do I call this method in my UserControl? [duplicate]

C# code to handle different classes with same method names
9 answers
So I have this class:
public class myClass
{
UserControl a;
UserControl b;
UserControl c;
public myClass (UserControl a, UserControl b, UserControl c)
{
this.a = a;
this.b = b;
this.c = c;
}
}
All 3 UserControls contain a method called test() (or whatever you want it to be) They're not the same methods though. I want to be able to call these methods from outside their respective classes, from myClass. How do I do this? When I simply try a.test() I get an error saying test is not a method of UserControl.
The UserControls look like this:
public partial class a : UserControl
{
public a()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
public void test()
{
//
}
}

If you have three instances of classUserControl, those three instances will all have exactly the same methods and properties. The values of the properties with be different, but, if theUserControlclass has a methods namedTest, then all three instance will have the sameTestmethod. If you have three different classes (Uc1, Uc2 and Uc3), and the three classes all inherit from the same base class (or implement the same interface), then they will all have the properties and methods defined in that base class (or interface)

@Servy Because the OP didn't understand the problem and asked the wrong question. If you re-read his question, the error OP received has nothing to do with multiple methods with the same name. They can't call the method because they are trying to call it from the base class (but it doesn't exist because the derived classes are where the method is declared). So it's unrelated to the question that it is a "duplicate" of.

You can use reflection to do this
using System.Reflection;
//Get the type of an object where the test method is
Type myType = a.GetType();
//Find the test method
MethodInfo testMethod = myType.GetMethod("test");
//Invoke the test method in the object
testMethod.Invoke(a, new object {});
