Overloading methods?

Exist any way to overload methods in type declaration? Or other similar solution to simulate it?

Method and function overloading is not supported on BlitzMax. A way to emulate it? Having several methods with different name and signature? Not sure... what are you trying to do exactly?

I want to make it

Type myObject1
Field sprite:TImage

Function Create:myObject1(sprite:TImage)
local obj:myObject1 = new myObject1
obj.sprite = sprite
return obj
End Function
EndType


Type myObject2 Extends myObject1
Field physic:myPhysicObject

Function Create:myObject1(sprite:TImage, physic:myPhysicObject)
local obj:myObject1 = new myObject1
obj.sprite = sprite
obj.physic = physic
return obj
End Function
EndType

Sorry, it's not possible in bmax! Really inconvenient, I know. You can either use a different function name, like ziggy suggested, or abstract it out:

Type rootobject
	Field sprite:timage
End Type

Type myObject1 Extends rootObject
	Function Create:myObject1(sprite:TImage)
		Local obj:myObject1 = New myObject1
		obj.sprite = sprite
		Return obj
	End Function
EndType


Type myObject2 Extends rootobject
	Field physic:myPhysicObject
	
	Function Create:myObject1(sprite:TImage, physic:myPhysicObject)
		Local obj:myObject1 = New myObject1
		obj.sprite = sprite
		obj.physic = physic
		Return obj
	End Function
EndType 

It's not very elegant, I know...

Thanks Warpy.

Not apear to be other solution.

Hope this feature can be implemented on blitmaz future versions.
