When overriding a property setter in a descendant class, the getter must also be overridden (or explicitly called with super), otherwise the compiler doesnt understand we want to call the getter.

example:
---

import std.stdio;

class foo
{
    private int fMyField;
    public:
    @property
    {
        void MyField(int aValue){fMyField = aValue;}
        int MyField(){return fMyField;}
    }
}

class bar: foo
{
    public:
    @property
    {
        override void MyField(int aValue){fMyField = 0;}
    }
    this()
    {
        writeln(MyField());// dmd should detect that the getter exists in foo.
        writeln(super.MyField());//super. would be superfluous
    }
}

void main(string[] args)
{
    auto Bar = new bar;
}
---

result: compile-time error,
"Error: function f337.bar.MyField (int aValue) is not callable using argument
types ()"

Use:

alias super.MyField MyField;

in the 'bar' class.

When you override only one overload of a function, the other functions are hidden, unless you re-introduce the overloadset to the subclass.

This is related to function hijacking, which you can read about here: http://dlang.org/hijack.html

Although that page seems to miss the information about using 'alias super.name name' for subclasses, it should probably be filed as a website bug.
