# DYN-5 — A declared parameter wins a name collision with a dynamic port

*GR-DYN (Part I) · level: extended · profiles: runtime · added in 1.0*

## The rule

> **Normative.** This is the rule.
>
> 1. Where a dynamic port's name is also the name of a parameter the node's processor declares, the declared parameter wins and the dynamic port is ignored.
>
> 2. An author cannot shadow a declared parameter by adding a dynamic port of the same name.
