So far my (limited) personal experience with C++ tends to make me agree with this. Lots of times I have been working on something and thought, "Yea, multiple inheritance might be just the way to go with this". Then I would continue work, and pretty soon I would have a solution, and MI never came up. It's like it sounds good, but I just never find a use for it. Perhaps the day will come when it does turn out to be just what I need. I still think it sounds good, I just haven't needed it so far... -- ====================================================================== domain: tahorsley@csd.harris.com USMail: Tom Horsley uucp: ...!uunet!hcx1!tahorsley 511 Kingbird Circle Delray Beach, FL 33444 +==== Censorship is the only form of Obscenity ======================+ | (Wait, I forgot government tobacco subsidies...) | +====================================================================+
