First, i would like to say: thank you.
Second, i would like to have your opinion:
"added static/final function implementations to interfaces"
Could you allow normal function imp to interfaces too? Interface will
look like c++ struct, but the difference is the way inheritance
organized, so that diamond shape problem does not exist.
And you could simplify something too. For example: for comparison
between classes, we just inherit Comparable interface, which has
implementation of many op<, op>, op<=, op>=, ...
(Well, in fact, this is done in Scala, it is named linearization). :)
For example:
class Biology
{
......
}
interface Animal
{
void eat() { ... }
void run() { ... }
}
interface Bird
{
void fly() { ... }
}
class Penguin : Biology, Animal, Bird
{
}
The left most class / interface will be the top super. Each interface
remain will solve its parent at definition site (line "class Penguin :
Biology, Animal, Bird")
Result: Penguin -> Bird -> Animal -> Biology.
Details of linearization are in page 52, ScalaRef.

Thanks.
