Is it possible to implement an `expect` class in JVM with a property `path` and the extending class has a method `getPath()` ? (I'm talking about `File` class).

I'm trying something like `actual class MyFile extends <http://java.io|java.io>.File` and MyFile has a property `path`.

i think that works if it’s a typealias instead of an extends

`actual typealias MyFile = <http://java.io|java.io>.File`

That would work if the methods weren't a little bit different and I wasn't able to create actual extension methods to that typealias

best i could come up with:
```actual class MyFile(pathname: String) : File(pathname) {
  actual val myPath: String
    get() = path
}```

couldn’t get around the “accidental override” if the name is the same

That's what I came up with, and one can't override getPath as it's final, I wouldn't like to call it mypath as it works everywhere and I wouldn't like to have a backing object as that means 2 objects every time it is instantiated but it seems is what I'll have to do

I would be fine if I found a synonym for path, lol
