Hi all, I notice that Parrot's inheritance and base types seems to be pretty much inconsistent and unusable. Here is a list of tickets that instinctively feel similar.
https://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/218 - can't sort a PIR subclass of an RPA. https://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/562 - subclassing basic number types fails to inherit basic ops like add, sub, mul and div http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=59630 - Complex subtraction fails for subclasses of Complex https://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/556 - setref on derived pmc aggregate class loses data on return https://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/203 - assign_pmc broken for pir subclasses Can we add some priority to getting inheritance fixed to the next milestone, perhaps 1.2? Can anyone bring this up in the upcoming #parrotsketch? Thanks Blair _______________________________________________ http://lists.parrot.org/mailman/listinfo/parrot-dev
