Hi, Where I work, we are currently experimenting with golang in order to migrate our existing Perl codebase to golang.
Although Perl isn't a pure OO language, it allows for a lot of the OO patterns to be used. One of the patterns we do use is where a superclass method wraps a series of call to other methods that can be overloaded by subclasses. Here is an example of what I mean: https://goo.gl/hTnUI4 Now, I've tried to apply the same principle in golang but failed as the method attack isn't called on the right type: https://play.golang.org/p/ZHhaQhSrms I've scratched my head for a bit to find a solution for this, and the idea I found was to wrap the prep+attack call in a function that isn't tied to any of the two structs https://play.golang.org/p/7nK8xEV5rj The example above creates the behaviour I initially expected but I don't find its as clean as when using the classic OO pattern. Now my question is, how do people usually translate this classic OO pattern into golang other than the way I found ?
