In MiddleKit if you were to specify the type of an attribute as a dictionary, you would immediately wonder what the key is. But in the case of using the dictionary of set, the key no longer has the same meaninging the value is nonsense. A set is non-ordered collection. A dictionary is map from keys to values. Being able to simulate one with the other, doesn't make it natural to work with or easy to understand. -Chuck _______________________________________________ Webware-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-discuss
