Here's what I got from reading. I saw this concept of "trait" from PHP (didn't
even know it existed until now) and I think it would look like this in Pascal.
From what I gather the "trait" is new kind of object that merely is injected
into an object but it can't itself be allocated or assigned. Does that sound
like what you had in mind?
program mixin;
type
TBrain = trait
procedure Eat;
procedure Fight;
end;
type
TPhysics = trait
x, y, z: float;
procedure Apply;
end;
type
TBase = class
use TPhysics, TRendering, TBrain;
end;
begin
end.
