I hate to seem like I'm flooding this forum with questions lately, but... consider the following code:

Code:
option objects

public structure One
   public bthing as byte
end structure
   
public structure Two
   public ithing as integer
   public sthing as string
end structure   
   
   
'public class test
   private function CheckSum( byval data as One ) as UnsignedInteger
   end function

   private function CheckSum( byval data as Two ) as UnsignedInteger
   end function
'end class

public sub main()
end sub


It compiles just fine, but if you uncomment the class definitions, it won't compile; it complains that the two functions have identical signatures.

The signature of the two functions should be different, I think - they take different types of parameters. But I think the compiler is treating them simply as type structure, not type One and Two.

Is there a way around this, other than renaming my function?

Thanks!

Unfortunately, no. This problem was discovered recently and has been corrected in our development version. I'll have to look into how complex the changes were to judge the feasibility of issuing an interim release with this correction.

There is a new version of the compiler that corrects this problem among others. The new installer contains the same compiler version as well as an updated IDE that addresses a Win7 issue.
