No particular reason, other than space constraints. The book doesn't document every single feature of Jess; the publisher was uneasy with the length of part II as it is, and would have liked it to be shorter. I vaguely recall a section from the book that *did* talk about deftemplate inheritance being one of the things I edited out at some point. --------------------------------------------------------- Ernest Friedman-Hill Advanced Software Research Phone: (925) 294-2154 Sandia National Labs FAX: (925) 294-2234 PO Box 969, MS 9012 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Livermore, CA 94550 http://herzberg.ca.sandia.gov -------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send the words 'unsubscribe jess-users [EMAIL PROTECTED]' in the BODY of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], NOT to the list (use your own address!)
