Summary: cannot call protected base class method by using base class name Product: D Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Windows Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: DMD AssignedTo: nob...@puremagic.com ReportedBy: s...@extrawurst.org --- Comment #0 from Stephan Dilly <s...@extrawurst.org> 2010-08-26 09:41:13 PDT --- the way how one has to invoke protected base class methods in D seems to be inconsistent. why do i have to use the super keyword ? using the base class name works in case of being public, why is protected any different ? module Foo; class Base { protected void foo() {} } module main; import Foo; class Super : Base { override protected void foo() {super.foo();} // works //override void foo() {Base.foo();} // does not work: //Error: class Foo.Base member foo is not accessible } -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
