My understanding is that we were worried about /accidental/ shadowing. If it is accidental, we don't know about the variable in the superclass, therefore won't need to access it. Accessor shadowing is a bit more worrysome because it overrides accessor calls in the superclass as well. -- -- Jim Weirich / Compuware -- FWP Capture Services -- Phone: 859-386-8855
