Hi all,
yestarday I had an annoying problem with Kylix 3 at work and decided
to try if this happens in Lazarus. The situation is the following :
------------------------------------------------------------------------
{ TBaseObject - a base class (3rd party component) }
TBaseObject = class (TObject)
protected
FObject : TObject;
public
constructor Create;
destructor Destroy; override;
end;
{ TPubObject - my own class that has a public property to access the data
object from the parent class.}
TPubObject = class (TBaseObject)
public
procedure Foo;
property Obj : TObject read FObject;
end;
--------------------------------------------------------
When I pressed Ctrl+Shift+C to get
procedure TPubObject.Foo;
begin
end;
The procedure body was created but there was added and the following declaration
TPubObject = class (TBaseObject)
// diff ---------------------------------------
private
FObject: TObject;
// diff ---------------------------------------
public
procedure Foo;
property Obj : TObject read FObject;
end;
----------------------------------------------------------
On Kylix that compiles and runs without errors and when you execute
MyObject.Obj.DoSomething you get an access violation because Obj = nil.
It reads Self.FObject not ParentClass.FObject.
On Lazarus this happens too, but result in compilation error :
'duplicate identifier FObject'
Is this a bug in code completion or a setting ? If yes where to report it ?
Can code complete check the data members in the base class and decide
what to do or even better ask you what to do (some settings required
perhaps)?
