Re: Partial super source? Possible?

Thanks Thomas. By "shadow" I was actually quoting you when you said: 

you cannot "augment" it, but you can "shadow" it by providing your own super-source version of java.lang.String

In my previous reply, I was saying that I'm happy with this solution for my GWT app (whatever you call this method "shadow" or something else).

But my concern is now with J2CL (as I plan to move my GWT app to J2CL in the future).

I would like to know if this solution will also work with J2CL.

i.e. will I be able to provide my own implementation of String.format() if not emulated by J2CL?

The shadow super-source should work in my case, thank you.

 If later I want to move from GWT to J2CL, will I have a similar feature (ex: providing my own implementation of String.format() if not emulated) ?

IIRC, no: each source file must only appear once, so you cannot use shadowing.
