Problem with enums and generic methods

[ArjailerParticipant]

I’m having a problem passing enums into a generic method.

The method is:

Monkey

[crayon-5cba83dc6b6ed510423666 inline="true" ]Function IsSame:Void(expected:T, actual:T, message:String = "") If expected <> actual Print("Expected instances to be equal. " + message) End End

1 2 3 4 5

[crayon-5cba83dc6b6ed510423666 inline="true" ]Function IsSame:Void(expected:T, actual:T, message:String = "") If expected <> actual Print("Expected instances to be equal. " + message) End End

[/crayon]

I can call this successfully with a single enum:

IsSame(Direction.None, Direction.None)

but if I try to add a second call with a different enum:

IsSame(AnotherEnum.Value, AnotherEnum.Value)

then it complains that the method has been “previously defined“.

Unfortunately I can’t paste the entire error here as the Ted2 output window doesn’t let me select or copy text, but it’s basically:

redefinition of ‘void g_framework_testing_TestAssert_IsSame_1TbbInt_2(bbInt, bbInt, bbString)’

‘void g_framework_testing_TestAssert_IsSame_1TbbInt_2(bbInt, bbInt, bbString)’ previously defined here void g_framework_testing_TestAssert_IsSame_1TbbInt_2(bbInt l_expected, bbInt l_actual, bbString l_message){

Note that I can work around this, but I’m guessing it’s not intentional and should be fixed?
