Issue accessing object property from extension about sdk

[eernstg]

A class instance member named m will always have a higher priority than any extension instance member with the same name. You can use this.property to indicate that you wish to use an inherited property, which is helpful in the case where another property is in the lexical scope. Here is an example that shows a few scoping properties including those two:

String property = "global";

class A {
  String property = "instance";
}

class B extends A {
  void foo() {
    print(property); // 'global'.
    print(this.property); // 'instance'.
    print('$otherProperty, ${this.otherProperty}'); // 'extension, extension'.
  }
}

extension on B {
  String get property => 'unused';
  String get otherProperty => 'extension';
}

main() => B().foo();

We do have community guidelines here as well :) Generally, asking questions here doesn't scale - community resources do. This issue tracker is better for bug reports and feature requests.

FYI, general questions on Dart usage are better asked on other community resources, such as stack overflow and those listed at https://dart.dev/community.

@eernstg

Thanks again for a wonderful explanation. This time it didn't bother me but another time, with statusCode or success I think, I spent many time to realize what was going on. It was very weird because it was a global property but not in the same file (was Dart global I think). I will try to find it and share here for the record.

UPDATE: It was a global of another package of me. So, yes, Now I know that I have to care about this.

I shared a war video (t.me link) on Discord Flutter off-topic with an advisor, and I got banned. (+ also in Discord Dart for commenting the incident). GitHub is more secure for me because it has no off-topic :)

Yeah, I usually report incidents rather than questions:
