Weeired compile issue

[Winista]

I have a property in my class like..

Int32 iVal;

public String Val
{
get{return iVal;}
set{this.iVal = value;}
}

Strange that compiler does not pick it up as error because of type mismatch.

Are you sure you are compiling this piece of code? The compiler should throw
an error message.

Could you post a short but complete program which demonstrates the
problem?

See http://www.pobox.com/~skeet/csharp/complete.html for details of
what I mean by that.

The above certainly doesn't compile on my box...

The kicker is that if I create a small project to reproduce this issue the
compiler does pick up the issue. But in a large project, this problem shows
up. Unfortunately I can't send the whole project. I will try to narrow it
down to specific pattern and then post the code.

Thanks for asking for program for reproducing the issue.

Why do you think we do it? Half the time, the original poster finds the
error right then.
