Issue ID: 12716
Summary: Improve error message : interface function is not
implemented
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
OS: Windows
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P1
Component: DMD

I got this error :
interface function 'void setParameter(string name, ParameterType type, void*
values)' is not implemented
I took a few time to figure out what it was. The issue came from multiple
definition of enum ParameterType which was in both module (one with the
interface and one with the implementation class).
I think the error message isn't enough explicit and have to point the existence
of multiple definitions of parameters type, it's just like an overloading that
isn't allowed.
If the message was written like the following form it may be easier to fix it :
overloading interface function 'void setParameter(string name,
interfaceModuleName.ParameterType type, void* values)' is not allowed.
overloads :
void setParameter(string name, classModuleName.ParameterType type, void*
values)
...
