Can a trait override a method in the class it's supposed to be mixed into?
I'd like to do something like:
class C { def x = "foo" }
trait T { this:C => override def x = "bar" }
class C2 extends C with T { println(x) }
I want this to print "bar", but it doesn't compile. Can I make this
work somehow, or do I need to take a completely different approach?
C is a Java class, so I can't make it a trait.
