Description

I'm implementing a custom gremlin DSL in java, and due to some interesting requirements, I'm trying to override the `properties` method from the GraphTraversal class.

 

Doing so results in a compilation error (see below) due to the method already being defined. It looks like the DSL code generation is loading in the custom methods, and then loading in the built in methods and the `@Override` annotation is ignored.

 

 

Error:
