Summary of Problem
Got initial implementation of operator methods off the ground, but inheritance is slightly more tricky. Current behavior is a bunch of messages about coercion. Shouldn’t be too difficult to fix, but I didn’t want to remove the test I’d already committed.
Steps to Reproduce
Source Code:
class Parent {
var x: int;
operator <(lhs: Parent, rhs: Parent) {
return lhs.x < rhs.x;
}
}
class Child: Parent {
var y: bool;
}
var c1 = new Parent(2);
var c2 = new Child(3, false);
writeln(c1 < c2);
writeln(c2 < c1);
var c3 = new Child(4, true);
writeln(c2 < c3);
writeln(c3 < c2);
Compile command:
chpl foo.chpl
