Maynard has a mixin which wants to declare that some methods return
objects of the type of that mixin. I distilled that down
to this test case
<canvas width="100%" height="80%" >
<mixin name="TreeNodeMixin">
<method name="methodA" returns="lz.TreeNodeMixin">
return this;
</method>
<method name="methodB" returns="lz.TreeNodeMixin">
return this;
</method>
<method name="methodC" returns="lz.TreeNodeMixin">
return this.methodA().methodB();
</method>
</mixin>
<class name="foo" with="TreeNodeMixin" />
</canvas>
Compiling this in swf10 gives
org.openlaszlo.sc.CompilerError: test/main.lzx: 13: Error: Call to a
possibly undefined method methodB through a reference with static type
$lzc$class_TreeNodeMixin, in line: return this.methodA().methodB()
Macintosh-2:trunk-clean hqm$
because when it goes to look at the declaration of $lzc$class_TreeNodeMixin,
all we wrote out is
package {
interface $lzc$class_TreeNodeMixin {
}
}
At one point we talked about adding in the method declarations to this , I
guess this is an example of where
we need to?
