Hi,

I just had a question about obfuscation. When the classes are obfuscated, do inherited methods obfuscate to the same name? For example, would IBlockAccess#getTileEntity have the same obfuscated name as World#getTileEntity?

I am 99% sure, yes.

I dont know, because I didnt looked into it, but if you know java you know that this needs to be true, because if a class overriding / implementing a method it needs to follow the signature of the method it is overriding / implementing, and obfuscating is nothing but a simple rename, the files still need to follow the rules of java.

Yes, I figured as much. I was fairly certain too, but I just wanted to check that 1% of doubt I had.

I am 100% sure no.

How do I know?

The MCP mappings.

 

SRG Name    MCP Name
func_175625_s    getTileEntity
func_176442_d    getTileEntity
func_177424_a    getTileEntity
func_177507_b    getTileEntity
func_180611_e    getTileEntity
func_190300_a    getTileEntity

 

For methods that override, the answer is yes.  But just because a method has the same name doesn't mean anything.

Yes, I asked if inherited methods have the same obfuscated name. It would probably wreak havoc if the other was the case. I asked about IBlockAccess and World because World overrides getTileEntity from IBlockAccess.

Inherited methods must match signature, so yes.

(I originally misparsed your question, but I was able to supply more detailed information.)

Yes, there is no real way to deal with this multi-inheritance things. For weird edge cases like this you'll have to figure something out yourself. There has been talk of ways to fix it but nothing has really be implemented yet.
