LPP-4029
This is example 29.14 in Chapter 29. Methods, Events, Handlers, and
Attributes of the dguide:
<canvas height="20">
<view>
<attribute name="width" type="number" value="20"/>
<attribute name="height" type="number" value="20"/>
<attribute name="bgcolor" type="color" value="red"/>
</view>
</canvas>
which causes the compiler to output these warnings:
methods-events-attributes-$14.lzx:3:55: In element 'view' attribute
'width' with type 'number' is overriding parent class attribute with
same name but different type: sizeExpression
methods-events-attributes-$14.lzx:4:56: In element 'view' attribute
'height' with type 'number' is overriding parent class attribute with
same name but different type: sizeExpression
The reference says that width and height are of type sizeExpression,
but there's no mention of sizeExpression in the dguide.
I can stop the error in two ways:
change the type from number to sizeExpression:
<canvas height="20">
<view>
<attribute name="width" type="sizeExpression" value="20"/>
<attribute name="height" type="sizeExpression" value="20"/>
<attribute name="bgcolor" type="color" value="red"/>
</view>
</canvas>
remove the type attribute, which I don't think detracts from this
example:
<canvas height="20">
<view>
<attribute name="width" value="20"/>
<attribute name="height" value="20"/>
<attribute name="bgcolor" type="color" value="red"/>
</view>
</canvas>
Is one better than the other?
Thanks,
Lou
