RFC 254 "Class Collections" was presented on 17 Sept proposing a mechanism to extend classes. To date, only three people have said anything on the subject: Schwern said, "The DBI has this very problem!" While agreeing that the problem exists, Schwern didn't directly endorse or denounce the RFC (as far as I can tell). Nathan Wiger brainstormed a bit on implementing the functionality using a "combination of @ISA, SUPER::, NEXT::, and use delegation." He also suggested a syntax for declaring inheritence as suggested by the RFC. Damian Conway said, "I feel that this proposal is solving the wrong problem." Unfortunately he could not elaborate and debate the issue as much as I would have liked due to the RFC deadlines . Since there has not been much in the way of opinions made for this RFC (with Damian being the notable exception), I am at a loss of what to do. Has anybody else experienced this problem (as detailed in the RFC)? Does anybody else have an opinion on the proposal the RFC makes? Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
