           Summary: Overriding members and overloading with alias causes
                    bogus error messages in with().
           Product: D
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: bugzilla@digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: chris@dprogramming.com


I finally was able to reproduce this problem with a small example:

// Code begin
class Base
{
        private char[] myfoo;
        private char[] mybar;

        // Get/set properties that will be overridden.
        void foo(char[] s) { myfoo = s; }
        char[] foo() { return myfoo; }

        // Get/set properties that will not be overridden.
        void bar(char[] s) { mybar = s; }
        char[] bar() { return mybar; }
}

class Derived: Base
{
        alias Base.foo foo; // Bring in Base's foo getter.
        override void foo(char[] s) { super.foo = s; } // Override foo setter.
}

void main()
{
        Derived d;
        with(d = new Derived)
        {
                foo = "hi"; // Error! Due to the alias up there.
                d.foo = "hi"; // Works
                bar = "hi";
        }
}
// Code end

DMD 0.161 through 0.166 output: test.d(26): need 'this' to access member text

I was able to find a workaround, simply put the alias after the function in the class instead of before.
