You'll probably need a wrapper

Thanks Alex. I'm trying to use this interface as a common type. Any way to do that? Right now I have to cast it as an object, or create a wrapper accessor for dataField On Tue, Jul 22, 2008 at 1:30 PM, Alex Harui <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: You can't switch a var to a get/set pair. You can override its default value though. ________________________________ From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com <mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com <mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> ] On Behalf Of Sean Clark Hess Sent: Tuesday, July 22, 2008 11:51 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com <mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> Subject: [flexcoders] Re: how to override a public var, or put it in an interface? Oh, I forgot to mention. The reason why the interface doesn't work is because it was implemented as a public var instead of an accessor.

Each of these has a "dataField" property. I have subclassed each, and they both implement a common interface. In the interface, I have function set dataField(value:String):void function get dataField():String I get the error "Interface method get dataField ... is implemented with an incompatible signature" So, if I try to override it in the subclass, I get "incompatible override" Is there a good way to do this? I guess I could leave it out of the interface and cast it as an object to work with dataField, but that's kind of lame.
