Maybe we are talking about different things. Interfaces[1] for classes just provide a mechanism for ensuring certain methods are implemented. They don't provide any dispatch. Were you referring to generic interfaces[2] for structs? (also, it was perhaps a mistake on our part to also call those interfaces) [1]: http://docs.racket-lang.org/reference/createinterface.html [2]: http://docs.racket-lang.org/reference/struct-generics.html Cheers, Asumu ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
