Hello Daniel!
Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. Essentially, we wouldn't have different
solution prototypes for primitives (as combinations use the rtweight
methodology for an analytic solution), which would make it easier to add
the table functions in the Object class, and the code would also be
understood better. Nice! :D
However, I will have to take a look at it in detail, because I don't
exactly know how the code works in the rtweight methodology.
Muchas Gracias :'D
Yes, I'll be meticulous in my approach. I would make sure I don't mutate
the objects in the tree. :)
With Regards,
Kalpit Thakkar
PS : Whenever you take a look at the proposal, please do tell me if I need
to make changes / add something. :)
