Override inherited LuaObject metamethods/members #118
Description
I tried to implement this
LNode
[LuaObject]
public partial class LNode
{
protected Godot.Node node;
[LuaMetamethod(LuaObjectMetamethod.Call)]
public static LNode New()
{
return new LNode
{
node = new Godot.Node()
};
}
// other methods omitted (like queue_free, set_parent, get_parent, ...)
}LControl -> LNode
[LuaObject]
public partial class LControl : LNode
{
[LuaMetamethod(LuaObjectMetamethod.Call)]
public static LControl New()
{
return new LControl
{
node = new Godot.Control()
};
}
// other methods (like get_position, set_position, modulate, ...)
}So I can use exposed classes from Godot in Lua:
local control = Control()
local node = Node()but it produces compile time error
LUACS007: Type 'LControl' already contains a 'Call' metamethod.
same with [LuaMember]

I came to some solution (just marked method as
newwithout attribute):But I’m not sure if this is really a solution.
it just worked
I just need to get proof that this is intended
(like for example __tostring works as is)

Fixed in #350. Derived Lua member names and metamethods now replace inherited bindings, while same-type duplicates retain their diagnostics. Verified with compilation tests, Lua execution tests, and CI.
