Maybe? What exactly are they. I have not been able to find a good
guide which explains the forall and exists qualifier concepts.
What I want to be able to do is store a bunch of objects with a common
base class in a list. And I also want to be able to add types to this
heritage without having to modify a single line of the existing code.
