Juan Jose Garcia Ripoll wrote: > I think you are reinventing the wheel. Please have a look at Meroon There has been talk of picking an object system for Guile and everyone knows of an implementation. I am sure Meroon is a good implementation, and so is SCOOPS, TinyCLOS and a bunch of others. However someone somewhere is not going to be happy if object system XX if picked over another. Just like it is Guile's stated goal to have translators for other languages so that a programmer is not forced to program in Guile, I think it would be good if an object system should be built and that other various object systems can be layered on top of that. Thus a SCOOP class can inherit from a class written in Meroon, because at their core their object representation is the same. In addition this object system should be mappable to Python's object system and any other translated languages. This is basically, I think, what I an trying to do. Wade.
