estanglerbm opened a new issue #953:
URL: https://github.com/apache/royale-asjs/issues/953
flashplayer_32_sa_debug.exe throws this error:
`VerifyError: Error #1053: Illegal override of A in a.A.`
With this:
```
public interface B
{
function foo(c:Object):void;
}
public class A implements B
{
public function foo(c:String):void {}
}
```
Royale mxmlc happily compiles this. Flex mxmlc will give this compile error:
`Error: Interface method foo in namespace a:B is implemented with an
incompatible signature in class a:A.`
Why is this important?
If you have:
```
import org.apache.royale.events.Event;
class ... implements IEventDispatcher
{
...
public function dispatchEvent( event : Event ) : Boolean { ... }
}
```
Royale mxmlc compiles it just fine. And it runs fine in JS. But in Flash
Debugger, it throws VerifyError: Error #1053.
The correct definition is:
```
COMPILE::SWF
{
import flash.events.Event;
}
class ... implements IEventDispatcher
{
...
COMPILE::SWF
public function dispatchEvent( event : flash.events.Event ) : Boolean {
... }
COMPILE::JS
public function dispatchEvent( event : Object ) : Boolean { ... }
}
```
And this kind of problem is hard to track down.
