Just to clarify: I obviously think it is a good and clean solution, since I thought of it:-). But there are several very good reasons why it isn't in the standard today. Perhaps the most important reason is that the idea only occured to me after there was a freeze on new features. And of course, until now (unless Valentin has done some work I'm not aware of), it has been a fairly vague idea. There has never been a formal proposal, and it requires a fair amount of work to convert a vague idea into a formal proposal. -- James Kanze mailto: James.Kanze@dresdner-bank.com Conseils en informatique orient�e objet/ Beratung in objekt orientierter Datenverarbeitung Ziegelh�ttenweg 17a, 60598 Frankfurt, Germany Tel. +49 (069) 63 19 86 27 Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Share what you know.
