Describe the bug

If an ObservableProperty is created in two ViewModels, a parent and child, then the parent property gets hidden and the warning is blocked from the user.

Regression

No response

Steps to reproduce

For this code:


public partial class ParentViewModel : ObservableObject
{
    [ObservableProperty] private int _someValue;
    public int AnotherValue { get; set; }
}

public partial class DerivedViewModel : ParentViewModel
{
    [ObservableProperty] private int _someValue;
    public int AnotherValue { get; set; }
}


The following warning is generated:

> 'DerivedViewModel.AnotherValue' hides inherited member 'ParentViewModel.AnotherValue'. Use the new keyword if hiding was intended.

Expected behavior

The following warning should also be generated:

'DerivedViewModel.SomeValue' hides inherited member 'ParentViewModel.SomeValue'. Use the new keyword if hiding was intended.

Additional context

This is due to warnings being disabled with

#pragma warning disable

Fix options:

1. The pragma is enabled for this warning

   • Pros: Warning might alert the user to unintended functionality
   • Cons: User can't suppress the warning

2. Option 1 plus ObservableProperty is modified to accept a parameter that says whether hiding is desired

   • Pros: The warning is exposed and can be suppressed
   • Cons: May not be worth the complication
