Mathias LANG <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED CC| |[email protected] Resolution|--- |INVALID --- Comment #1 from Mathias LANG <[email protected]> --- This works as intended. I think you are confusing two notions: hijacking and shadowing. We prevent hijacking by making sure a change in a different module will not suddenly change the symbol being called, but keep the same behavior or result in an error. There's no hijacking protection within a module itself. However we have shadowing protection. We make sure not to allow a more nested scope to override a scope name from an outer scope, as long as this outer scope is in the same function. However, `with`'s whole point is to bypass this. An object used in a `with` clause will be searched first for this scope. Erroring on shadowing would render the feature completely useless and unreliable. --
