enhancements on RoninTemplate not visible at runtime?

[chris]

1. create a new ronin app following the quick install instructions on the web site

2. create a new enhancement:

   enhancement RoninTemplateEnhancement: ronin.RoninTemplate {

  function test() : String {

    return "Test"

  }

}

3. update Main.gst to extend RoninTemplate and add a call to ${test()} somewhere

In IJ everything verifies and looks good. Run vark server and go to http://localhost:8080 you get the following error:

An Exception Occurred:

Message: RoninTemplate.gs Errors: No function defined for test. [line:-227 col:15] in line 1: Expected Type: String Line Number: 3 Column: 15 Warnings: The type String is already assignable to String, so coercing is unnecessary.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

I suspect the mechanism by which templates "inherit" methods from their "superclass" doesn't pick up enhancement methods.  I'd recommend instead creating a subclass of RoninTemplate and having your templates "extend" that class.

Make the function static.  Stupid, but that's the way it is right now.

Not sure why it is verifying in IJ, that's a bug.

Cheers,

In order to get it to verify I have to restart IJ after using the
enhancement in my page

Thanks guys!
