Is this a bug?

Reply Threaded

Some javascript/style in this post has been disabled (why?)

I’m implementing a multidimensional array and in my class I inherit from ARRAY. In the rename clause of the inherit part I attempt to rename copy as array_copy and when I try to compile I get this error:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Error code: VLEL(2)

Error: identifier in Export subclause does not denote inherited feature.

What to do: make sure that all identifiers in subclause are final names

of features inherited from the given parent.

Class: MULTIDIMENSIONAL_ARRAY [G]

Invalid feature name: copy

Parent for which export list appears: ARRAY

Here is the inherit part of my class:

inherit

ARRAY [G]

rename

make as array_make,

item as array_item,

put as array_put,

force as array_force,

infix "@" as array_infix_at,

copy as array_copy

export

{NONE}

array_make, array_force,

wipe_out, resize,

make_from_array, make_from_cil,

grow, conservative_resize

{MULTIDIMENSIONAL_ARRAY}

array_put, array_item

{ANY}

copy, is_equal, area, to_c

redefine

is_equal

end

Don’t wish to file a bug report ‘till I’m sure it is one.

Regards

Chris Saunders

In your code you renamed copy as array_copy
then later in the export, you should use array_copy

inherit

ARRAY [G]

rename
...

copy as array_copy

export

...

{ANY} array_copy
...

end

Thanks Jocelyn

It's obvious and I don't know why I couldn't see it. I guess my brain is not functioning today. I'm glad I asked before submitting a bug report.
