Hello,
I am having serious problems exporting generics from subclasses of
<object> and then using them in other modules.
I have trawled the logs and tried every combination I can thing of.
I have tried creating a common base class <thing> for all my classes and
defining the methods there, I have tried exporting generics, and I have
even tried every combination of #:duplicates (merge-generics, first,
last. etc.).
I can sometimes make some progress but eventually I grind to a halt -
often with spurious error messages saying that "format" and "for-each"
are not memoized.
I am also quite willing to rework my code to fit guile - I just need
some help on how to proceed.
Basically I would like a class hierarchy.
Module Class
-------------------------------------
<object>
(brent thing) <thing> ; optional - let me know
id name name!
(brent foo) <foo>
; redefines from <thing>
id name name!
"same file" <bar>
; uses thing.name!
(brent baz) <baz>
; redefines from <thing>
name name!
I would then like a common module (brent main) to import (brent thing)
(brent foo) and (brent baz) and then merrily create and use these classes.
Please can someone provide me with the recipe that will solve the above
and also scale to a proper large system.
(I have test code - if required)
Thanks
Brent
