Hello All, I have a unit here:
https://github.com/xrfang/pastats/blob/master/src/units/datalist.pas which report this error: /home/xrfang/git/pastats/src/units/datalist.pas(61,17) Warning: An inherited method is hidden by "constructor TDataFrame.Create;" However, the following code, which also define a new constructor without using "overload", does NOT have such warning. program Project1; {$mode objfpc}{$H+} type TBase = class public constructor Create(AName: string); end; TDerived = class(TBase) public constructor Create; end; constructor TDerived.Create; begin WriteLn('Creator of TDerived... anonymous'); end; constructor TBase.Create(AName: string); begin WriteLn('Creator of TBase: ', AName); end; var obj: TDerived; begin obj := TDerived.Create; end. If I use reintroduce, I can suppress this warning. But my question is, why is this warning NOT displayed in the above sample code? In general, shall I use "reintroduce" keyword? Is it related to generics? Thanks! Xiangrong
