I did send a ~200KB patch do Dan (I supposed it to be to big for the list).
It implements the proposed class hierarchy:
default ... implementing almost nothing, throwing exceptions
| |
| scalar ... most of previous default
| |
| perlint, perlnum, ...
Sub
Continuation
....
It's not finished, there are many questions ("bitwise or" for perlnum
....), some other issues (copy a string or not) and so on.
But, it is IMHO a starter, to get towards a consistent class interface -
and it run's all tests ok.
So if someone else is interested in looking at it, I'll send a copy.
Thanks,
leo
