E3042 error

Field and method/accessor with the same name (in a class or across its superclass)

area: classes (x3xxx)
fails the build: yes

A field and a method (or accessor) with the same name, in one class or across a class and its superclass. An instance has one value per name, so the field would hide the method. Rename one of them.

Example

× failswowlua

class Unit    function label(): string        return "x"    endendclass Player extends Unit    label: string = "y"endprint(Player)

✓ compileswowlua

class Unit    function label(): string        return "x"    endendclass Player extends Unit    title: string = "y"endprint(Player)

The compiler reports it like this:

error[E3042]: `label` is a field in one class and a method or accessor in the other
