Hi guys. First, I'd like to congratulate the team for yesterday's release. You're doing a fantastic job with this project.
I have a question I've been wanting to ask you for a long time: are there any plans to introduce abstract classes in future versions of Flex? With the new compiler maybe? I've been working a lot with Flex in the past 2 years, making relatively big applications with advanced architectures, and I really miss the abstract class (like you have with Java for instance): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abstract_type. I end up creating a class and an interface, with run-time exceptions to prevent instantiating the "base class" directly. It works well, but isn't as clean as an abstract class would be. If no work has been done in that direction, does anyone know how much work adding such a feature represents? Thanks a lot! Mat
