I'm sorry - i provided wrong example. I had property in my code, and he
didn't complained about getter, but setter (of course he can't diversify by
different return values).
<code>
interface Interface
{
void method(Interface);
}
class Class : Interface
{
void method(Class) {}
}
void main() {}
</code>
So, You're saying it should be possible, and this is DMD bug? So i'll report
that.
Thanks,
