Well, most of the article rants about multiple inheritance, which is
indeed a bad idea. But of course you know that's different from chained
behaviors, so no worries there.
BR: actually I don't know how that is different, probably I just don't
understand it well enough, if I did, perhaps I would not be afraid of it.
Backscripts are "easy" but I am seeing instances where better encapsulation
will help avoid issues and if some functions truly are not needed globally then
a strong case could be made to use behaviors for specific event sequences.
In our current app, we are using independent modules(stacks) that use global
functions in the loader stack and a core API backscript (and a few others)
But some of these modules are so unique that requirements for Module Y will
never appear as a requirement for Modules A, B, C (separate stacks)
Theoretically I could have (I will declare these as objects, but of course now
we can also use livecodescript text only stacks)
Behavior_button A
Behavior Buttons B and C
# both have behavior A assigned
Button D
# with button C assigned as behavior
How is this not "inheritance"?
