How is the type modified to allow access to its backing property?" (that was my first interpretation on "foo.runcible")<div class=""><div class="">I think all problems can be avoided without new keywords or a suffix with rarely used (or forbidden) character:</div></div><div class="">Just give the backing property for "foo" the name "super.foo".</div><div class="">- Afaik this is safe, because you can't create a property that already exists in the superclass (I guess it works if the property is not visibleā¦)</div><div class="">- It's quite intuitive to me, because super always bypasses the normal behavior of self (well, commonly it refers to the superclass, but "bypass self" is just more general than superclass).</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">May the force be with you</div><div class="">Tino</div></body></html>
