Let me also say: this approach has been incredibly successful in building a simple Reactor framework. I've just kept subclassing from there. I built a BufferedIO class on top of IOWatcher, built Socket (and a TCPSocket subclass) on top of BufferedIO, and have since built even higher level abstractions on top of TCPSocket. Every object in the Reactor framework is ultimately subclassed from the abstract Watcher base class, and all support the attach/detach methods. -- Tony Arcieri ClickCaster, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
