- Sub: RE: Multiple Inh. & NEW()
-
- I agree that limiting multiple inheritance with the proposed restriction would
- cause more problems then it would solve. The problem with the new() operator
- can be more easily solved by overiding the definition with a new method that
- expicitly invokes the system new() operator via the scope resolution operator
- (e.g., ::new()). This has the added advantage of maintaining clearer semantics
- and additional intelligence could be added as to when the system operator was
- used and when another method invoked.
