In Kotlin, how can I work around the inherited declarations clash when an enum class implements an interface?
it is a kotlin bug-KT-14115 even if you makes the enum
class implements the interface which contains a name()
function is denied.
interface Name {
fun name(): String;
}
enum class Color : Name;
// ^--- the same error reported
BUT you can simulate a enum
class by using a sealed
class, for example:
interface Name {
fun name(): String;
}
sealed class Color(val ordinal: Int) : Name {
fun ordinal()=ordinal;
override fun name(): String {
return this.javaClass.simpleName;
}
//todo: simulate other methods ...
};
object RED : Color(0);
object GREEN : Color(1);
object BLUE : Color(2);
