Felix has had 'virtual' fields for ages. For any data type X you can just define: fun get_field: X -> int = ... and then given val x: X = .. write x.field which translates to get_field x It's true you can't pattern match on structs though. -- John Skaller <skaller at users dot sf dot net> Felix, successor to C++: http://felix.sf.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
