Using the same function in an extended type

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Programming/Using the same function in an extended type

DirtBikeDude(Posted 2008) [#1]
When I use the same function from a base type, in an extended type, I get an error about using the same type.
I would like to use the same function in the base type but with more parameters for an extended type.
For example:
Type BaseType
	Function Create(A:Int)
	End Function
End Type

Type ExtendedType Extends BaseType
	Function Create(A:Int, B:Int)
	End Function
End Type


Is it possible to use the same function name within an extended type or do I need to try something different?

Thank you.

Yes you can use the same function name if it has also the same parameters list. So your example won't work, unless you add also the B parameter in the base type create function.

Hello.

Is needed two functions have same signature.

In your case the first have one parameter and the last have two parameters. The overloading is not legal in blitzmax :(
