I had been trying to decorate both the ShippingAddress and BillingAddress. But the problem is that after deployment I saw in the files /var/run/ that ShippingAddress is extending the BillingAddress. I don't want that way because I want both the ShippingAddress and Billing Address to have independent functionality and functions. Please guide me through what I had been doing wrong here:

namespace XLite\Module\Swipezoom\InternationalShipping\View\ Checkout;

/**
* Billing address block
*/
abstract class BillingAddress extends \XLite\View\Checkout\AAddressBlockAbstract implements \XLite\Base\IDecorator
{

}

namespace XLite\Module\Swipezoom\InternationalShipping\View\ Checkout;

/**
* Shipping address block
*/
abstract class ShippingAddress extends \XLite\Module\Swipezoom\InternationalShipping\View \Checkout\BillingAddress implements \XLite\Base\IDecorator
{

}

I checked on the getAddressFields() function which is now same for both the classes because of inheritance which has taken place. Please guide me through the correct way to extend these two classes in my plugin without effecting the overall functionality.

I don't see this happening on my local XC5 installation.
Please check whether you extend the correct classes in your custom module.

Only changes when making the decorator class is changing the namespace path, adding abstract against the class name and adding 'implements \XLite\Base\IDecorator'? So the class which it was extending it I kept that the same.

Can you please share how you are extending it? Both the source and compiled code for these two classes.

ok. I got this issue fixed. Problem was that I was decorating (extending) the incorrect class. Following is the correct solution, in case someone else is stucked in similar sort of issue:

namespace XLite\Module\Swipezoom\InternationalShipping\View\ Checkout;

/**
* Shipping address block
*/
abstract class BillingAddress extends \XLite\View\Checkout\BillingAddress implements \XLite\Base\IDecorator
{

}


namespace XLite\Module\Swipezoom\InternationalShipping\View\ Checkout;

/**
* Shipping address block
*/
abstract class ShippingAddress extends \XLite\View\Checkout\ShippingAddress implements \XLite\Base\IDecorator
{

}
