It's not totally a mistake of yours, but a decision made by the compiler the first time the "Net" identifier is encountered: "Should I use the global Net class from the gb.net component or the Net class defined in the project?" The common programmer logic would tell to decide the second solution. But then we are hiding a class of an official component, which is not a good idea. It makes the program less readable, a bit like when you override operators in C++: a well-known language "thing" actually does not do what it should at first sight. So I chose the first solution, which usually prints an error when you try to access your class. If you really want mixing your own Net class with the official one, you can export it. This way, your own class will inherit and override the Net official class, so that you can add the feature you need to it.
