Alex Harui commented on FLEX-33182:
-----------------------------------
Sorry, missed the [Bindable] metadata that transforms the vars into get/set
pairs and generates the backing variable with the random number to prevent
collisions.
> override public in subclass results in public write only property. public
> override works as expected

> Key: FLEX-33182
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33182
> Project: Apache Flex
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: Adobe Flex SDK 4.6 (Release)
> Environment: Flash Builder 4.6
> Reporter: Michael Grove
> Attachments: test.zip
>
>
> I'll upload a zip of classes and test cases for flexunit that demonstrate
> this problem. Here's the gist:
> We’ve found that the list of accessors is different if a derived class
> overrides a getter/setter with “public override” vs. “override public”.
> “override public” introduces an additional write only public property as
> shown in both describeType output and in Flash Builder.
> Here are some simple classes that demonstrate the problem, text continued
> below.
> package publicoverridevsoverridepublic
> {
> [Bindable]
> public class BaseClass
> {
> public var var1:String;
> public var var2:String;
> }
> }
> package publicoverridevsoverridepublic
> {
> [Bindable]
> public class SubClassOverridePublic extends BaseClass
> {
> override public function set var1(value:String):void
> {
> super.var1 = value;
> }
> override public function get var1():String
> {
> return super.var1;
> }
> }
> }
> package publicoverridevsoverridepublic
> {
> [Bindable]
> public class SubClassPublicOverride extends BaseClass
> {
> public override function set var1(value:String):void
> {
> super.var1 = value;
> }
> public override function get var1():String
> {
> return super.var1;
> }
> }
> }
> The attributes of SubClassPublicOverride in Flash Builder include a
> _3612138var1 property. It’s a private property that according to Flash
> Builder is write only (only includes a setter). I’m not sure what the
> purpose of this property is, or more generally any of the private properties
> I’ve seen in Flash Builder with numeric prefixes like this. And I’m not sure
> why it is believed only to have a setter. But as it is private, it is not
> included in the results from describeType().
> The attributes of SubClassOverridePublic in Flash Builder have the same
> _3612138var1 property but this time it is public and write only.
> I've never heard of any language treating "public override" and "override
> public" as semantically different and assume this must be a bug.
> Note that some Flex formatters out there are preconfigured to favor “override
> public” to “public override” (that’s actually what broke us – formatting the
> file). If you’re not using describeType you probably don’t care. But it’d
> be interesting to know what else might be different between “override public”
> and “public override”.
