A.h:
class A
{
static void
f (const char * src);
static void
f (int);
}
B.h:
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
class B
{
using A::f;
static void
f (NSString * src)
{
f ([src UTF8String]);
}
...
}
The above to me seems comparable to:
http://www.research.att.com/~bs/bs_faq2.html#overloadderived
The only difference is the use of static members. However, when I attempt
to use B::f, I am told that it doesn't exist and the options are the two
functions in A::f.
eg
B.mm
void
B::applyF (NSString * src)
{
f (src);
}
->
error: no matching function call to A::f (NSString *).
...
Why is it only trying to find A::f when B::f is also in scope? What have I
missed?
I can work around it by explicitly scoping the call to B::f (NSString *),
but that sort-of defeats the point of overloading.
