Hello,

Im having problems with method resolution in a sub-class.

	public class A {
		public void
	 	meth(someType) { code here }
	}

	public class B extends A {
		public void
		meth(someOtherType) { code here }
	}

The compiler generates an error saying ambiguous methods since the two 
methods have the same name but different signature. 
Is this NOT allowed in Java? 
Thanks
