What is the issue affecting?

Diagnostics/Syntax Checking

Expected Behaviour

local a = {}
a.__index = a
function a:m1()
end

-- b inherit from a
local b = setmetatable({}, a)
-- override m2()
function b:m2() --- no warning generated
end

Actual Behaviour

local a = {}
a.__index = a
function a:m1()
end

-- b inherit from a
local b = setmetatable({}, a)
-- override m2()
function b:m2() --- duplicate field `m`
end

Reproduction steps

1. Just copy the code and lint them

Additional Notes

Inheritance and override methods is prevent by LuaLS linter.

Override is a common and basic concept. But LuaLS seems can't recognize it but provide warnings.

In the case, m2 is not a duplicate field, but just shadowing or overriding.

Log File

No response

Diagnostics/Syntax Checking の下にある Lua スニペットを使って、Visual Studio Code Extension で診断を再現します。次に、リンターの重複フィールド診断と setmetatable 継承の処理を追跡します。m2 が重複として報告されず、無関係な重複フィールドは引き続き報告されれば完了です。
