Remix doesn't recognize auto generated functions as a valid abstract interface implementation

Hey,

In the following example -

contract AbstractToken {
    function totalSupply() external constant returns (uint256 totalSupply);
}

contract Token is AbstractToken {
    uint256 public totalSupply = 0;
}

Remix won’t allow the user to create an instance of Token (“This contract does not implement all functions and thus cannot be created”), even though the auto generated compiler function for totalSupply matches the abstract interface signature.

Was tested on solidity 0.4.11

Note that solc actually compiles Token with no error.

See https://github.com/ethereum/solidity/issues/2254

Edit: the issue is also valid when the abstract parent is an interface instead of a contract.

Also make sure you’re deploying Token and not AbstractToken. I ran into that too…

Closing it.
