I’m just wondering, would it be possible to make a class be a function that would be equivalent to (make-object % arg …)?
Is there a way to attach structure-type properties to classes, instead of to instances of classes? Because if there is, then procedure-arity could work on the class. My first instinct was to do this: (I know why it doesn’t work) #lang racket (define with-constructor% (interface* () ([prop:procedure (lambda (this . args) (send/apply this constructor args))]) constructor )) (define point% (class* object% (with-constructor%) (super-new) (inspect #f) (init-field [x 0] [y 0]) (define/public (constructor . args) (apply make-object this% args)) )) (define p (point% 1 2)) But this doesn’t work because it attaches the structure type properties to instances of the class instead of to the class itself. Is there a way to attach structure-type properties to classes, instead of to instances of classes?
