Hi,

Should setter overloading work?

I'm extending a java class that provides:

void setDuration(Duration d) { .. }

...in my groovy class extending it:

class EnhancediTunesEntryInformationImpl extends EntryInformationImpl { void setDuration(String s) { super.setDuration(new Duration(s)) } }

...this fails with groovy complaining that it cannot cast the string to Duration. If I change my setter to:

void setDurationText(String s) { super.setDuration(new Duration(s)) }

it works fine.

So... should overloaded setters resolve with property access or not? I'm just trying to establish whether or not there is a bug to isolate here.
