Parameter/variable name lookup confusion #659
Description
As I was putting together a test script for #655 I noticed a problem with parameter/variable name lookups. The following script fails at line 23 with the error message:
Attempt to resolve method: add() on undefined variable or class name: c.ylds : at Line: 23
test1(String c) { //change String c to String d and it works!
return this;
}
container() {
System.err.println("allocate container");
ylds = new ArrayList();
work() {
System.err.println("working");
}
return this;
}
c = null;
for (int i=0; i<2; i++) {
for (int j=0; j<10; j++) {
if (j%5 == 0) {
if (c != null) {
c.work();
}
c = container();
}
c.ylds.add(test1("hello")); // line 23
}
}However, if I change the formal parameter name in the test1 method from c to d the script will work successfully.
What am I missing here?
