relates to:

  • SR-6980 Swift 4.1 new warning "Cannot override with a stored property"

Issue Description:

Given classes A and B like this:

class A {
    var x: Int { return 9 }
    func p() {  print(x) }
}

class B: A {
    ...
}

let v: A = B()
v.p()

overriding x in B in three different ways have the following results:

class B: A {
    // OPTION 1: FINE - prints 10
    override var x: Int { return 10 }

    // OPTION 2: ERROR - cannot override with a stored property 'x'
    override var x = 10

    // OPTION 3: FINE - prints 10
    override lazy var x = 10
}

As suggested in this answer there are cases in which overriding seems to be possible to be done without giving an error.

Oh, cute—a lazy property is implemented behind the scenes as computed, so it sneaks past the check. Fixing that would break source compatibility at this point.

Thanks for finding this.

"Fixed" in #13304 and #13335 You now get a warning in Swift 3/4 and an error in Swift 5.
