2- slot redefinition at subclass level
See bug#20423 for a full description, here is the summary of what I think we
should
do:
When there are superclasses, a subclass can specify a slot that has
already
been specified for a superclass. When this happens, the information in
slot
options has to be combined. For the slot options listed above, either
the
option in the subclass overrides the one in the superclass or there is a
union:
:ACCESSOR - union
:INITARG - union
:INITFORM - overrides
Tbh, I'm not interested in the justification upon why 'things' are the way are
in
goops now wrt this problem, let's save our energy here. I'd like 'things' to
change
wrt this problem so we implement the clos protocol, ide4ally, that would happen
in
guile-2.2 'already'.
Happy Hacking,
David
