[Gambas-user] IDE properties and auto-inheritance

[Bruce Steers]

Is there a reason i cannot set properties in the IDE with auto-inherited
TextLabel?

Consider the following code named TextLabel.class..

' Gambas class file

Export

Public Const _Properties As String = "*,IsHeader"

Property IsHeader As Boolean
Private $IsHeader As Boolean

Private Function IsHeader_Read() As Boolean

    Return $IsHeader

End

Private Sub IsHeader_Write(Value As Boolean)

    $IsHeader = Value

End

after "compile all" i can see the IsHeader value in the IDE properties and
I have the option to set it true or false but if i change it it just
remains False.

If I rename the class to TextLabel2.class and use "Inherits TextLabel" then
it looks the same in the IDE and i can change the property okay.

Is it a bug or is it wrong to expect the IDE to use properties from
auto-inherited classes?

Cheers
