[Bindable] public override

March 7th, 2008

I stumbled upon a compiler error when overriding a setter function with the Bindable metadata tag: "overriding a function that is not marked for override"

The answer is short and simple: use

[Bindable] public override
instead of
[Bindable] override public
It may sound silly but the override actually has to come second in order for the compiler to interpret it properly in this particular situation.
