Hi Manfred,
Let me clarify the concept things:
Signature means the way how the caller do the invocation: method name,
input parameters and the expected return values;
Override changes what the method do, means the behavior changes.
The key point here is:
1. The feature UIRepeat is also in 2.1.20 and the complained issue is
also there;
2. I have done test locally which covered the tests set which is same as
that in Hudson and didn't find any of the Spec tests was broken.
Briefly, the issue exists and the fixing works and no legacy tests broken.
So what's your concern? I can't take any action before you make me
understand what you mean.
BR,
Zhijun
