Should we refer to «replacing an implementation» as overwriting or overriding? Is it language-specific?

asked Dec 28, 2011 at 3:33

If you’re replacing one implementation completely with another, it’s «overwriting» or more commonly «replacing«. If you’re replacing an implementation with another for some specific cases, it’s «overriding«.

To «overwrite» something is to put something else in its place, destroying the thing overwritten. To «override» something is to cause something else to operate instead of it without harming or changing the thing overridden.

This is my understanding of what the differences of Overriding and Overwriting are, in terms of a real-world example:

Assume that you have an automobile manufacturing company. You are famous and happy with your customers since they always trust you and purchase your products.

To proceed with your business, you have, basically, 2 options in hand:

All the things come through and you know that you step in the right path. So you want to not only keep the previous models but also keep enhancing them. Though, how come? Probably by adding some new features to the existing models! Now new models have all the features PLUS newly enhanced features.
You know that the way you went through was sort of wrong! what an awful approach!! You notice quickly that the company should change the entire technology, otherwise it’ll be undergoing harsh situations (like bankruptcy or so…)

After all, in terms of programming, the first approach refers to Overriding since you add some new BEHAVIORS to your cars while keeping the prior behaviors which the car had, whereas the second approach refers to Overwriting since you want to change the behavior(s) entirely, and develop new features from scratch.

Hope this helps you out.

I think if given some context, it would be so much eaiser to understand and distinguish.

From APUE §10.17:

POSIX.1 also specifies that abort overrides the blocking or ignoring
of the signal(SIGABRT) by the process.

From Bing Dictionary:

override sth: to use your authority to reject sb’s decision, order,
etc.

Here override means it «ignores» something by its higher authority.
abort does not replace the signal mask of the process, it just «ignore» the constraint with higher authority.

So I think override and overwrite are totally 2 different words. overwrite should be the word for replacing the old content.

The terms overriding and overwriting are often (conf)used in the context of object-oriented programming. (The fact that these words when pronounced in English by non-native speakers they sound similar adds to this confusion.) In object-oriented programming, thanks to the mechanism of inheritance, it is possible for subclasses to re-implement methods that were already implemented in a parent class. This is a powerful mechanism that enables fine-grained code and design reuse, because it allows to define subclasses that are special cases of the parent classes of which they inherit, with slightly specialised behaviour.

The difference between (method) overriding and (method) overwriting lies in how a method of a subclass re-implements the original method that was implemented in the class from which it inherits.

We talk about method overwriting if the already existing method gets remplaced by a completely new implementation which is not connected to the original implementation (often implementing an alternative, but independent, implementation of a similar functionality).

We talk about method overriding if the method defined in the subclass specialises the original implementation of the method to a special case, but in an incremental way, by making use of a super call. The effect of the super call is to execute the behaviour as defined by the original method, but in addition to that the method in the subclass can add additional instructions to specialise that behaviour.

«Override» is the cancellation of some previous action or decision. «Overwrite» specifically refers to something being written over something previously written. In other words, actions and decisions are overriden. Information is overwritten. Furthermore it is overwritten with new information.

Therefore in your example, overwrite is appropriate:

The administrator has the right to overwrite the user time slot for the venue A inside the online system.

A similar example where override would be appropriate is:

The administrator has the right to override all venue decisions made in the online system.

edit:

In some contexts, override could be correct. Specifically, consider the following scenario. Say that the meeting is already scheduled to take place in room 117. Then, another employee changes this location to room 119. In this case, the administrator would override this decision, rolling the location back to room 117.

However, it is equally correct to say that the location was overwritten to room 117, and there is nothing in the original sentence to imply that this scenario is the case. For that reason, I would say that «overwrite» is the best word choice.

“Override” and “overwrite” are words that can confuse us since, as their spellings are very alike, we might think that they have similar meanings or even that they are synonyms. Do you have this doubt? Keep on reading and you will find the information you need in this article.

The words “override” and “overwrite” are correct and have different meanings. “Override” means to cancel or nullify something, to manually handle an automatic machine, and to travel further than your ticket allows. “Overwrite” means to change what you have written or to write with lots of details.

Although these two words’ spellings differ in one letter, they are neither synonyms nor interchangeable words.

Override

“Override” is a verb that has more than one meaning. Firstly, it means to void something, like to “override a document”, and it also means to operate an automatic machine by hand. Lastly, it’s used when you travel on public transportation and go further than what you have paid for.

We decided to go to the Cambridge Dictionary to find the meaning of this word and we found all the definitions of “override” mentioned in the previous paragraph.

Now we can see some examples of how to use “override” properly in a sentence.

Our boss changes his mind all the time, so this time, he has decided to override the document and change all the agreements.
My ex-husband’s lawyer has advised him to override the changes we had made in our last meeting.
When I realized the machine was not working well, I decided to override the autopilot and handle it myself.
Hi Jim, could you work extra hours today? We need you to override the data.
I know you love adventures and risky situations, but I don’t think we should override.

Overwrite

The verb “overwrite” has two meanings. For starters, it means to replace something you have written, either by hand or on the computer. On the other hand, it also means to write in such an unnecessary detailed way that the meaning of the text is not clear.

We visited the Cambridge Dictionary and we were not surprised to find the definitions explained above as the two possible meanings of this verb.

Let’s see now some examples of the word “overwrite” used correctly in a sentence.

How many times will you want me to overwrite this letter? I have done it five times already.
Remember the book she gave me for my last birthday? I started reading it but, honestly, I cannot continue. The author overwrites a lot; there are so many details and much more adjectives than necessary!
One of my clients sent me a document he wants me to overwrite. I wrote this for him last week, but I don’t care because he pays me.
I don’t know if she believes herself to be Jane Austen or what, but I cannot stand her elaborate way of writing. Don’t you think she overwrites a lot?
You cannot overwrite the existing options; you can add ones if you want but do not erase the others, please.

Which Is Used the Most?

To check some word’s popularity, a good tool to use is Google Ngram Viewer as it provides very accurate information. Let’s see then which information we get for the words “override” and “overwrite”.

On one hand, we found that the word “overwrite” was not popular at all before 1980. During this decade, although not much, the red curve starts to go up a little.

On the other hand, the word “override” has always had more popularity than “overwrite”. The blue curve shows stability in its use until the 1930’s when it begins to rise. By the 2010s, however, the curve begins to go down again.

Final Thoughts

“Override” and “overwrite” are English words that have different meanings. While “override” means to void something, to use a machine with your hands, and to go further in distance than what your ticket states. “Overwrite” means to change a piece of writing or to write in a very detailed way.
