Types are first class objects and therefore templates/generics need no special syntax. Object orientation is used when it brings advantages and not in places when other solutions are more obvious. Seed7 is covered by the GPL (and LGPL for the Seed7 runtime library). Changelog: - Information about the lines of code in Seed7 was added to the FAQ. - The FAQ answers about supported operating systems and the analyze phase of the interpreter, were improved. - Several spelling errors in the FAQ and in the manual were fixed. - The appearance of tables in the FAQ and in the manual was improved. - Variants of the function 'timAwait', which work with poll() and ppoll(), were added to the file "tim_unx.c". - The makefiles "makefile", "mk_linux.mak", "mk_cygw.mak" and "mk_osx.mak" were improved to select one version of the function 'timAwait'. - Descriptions of the configuration macros AWAIT_WITH_POLL, AWAIT_WITH_PPOLL, AWAIT_WITH_SIGACTION and AWAIT_WITH_SIGNAL were added to the file "src/read_me.txt". Greetings Thomas Mertes -- Seed7 Homepage: http://seed7.sourceforge.net Seed7 - The extensible programming language: User defined statements and operators, abstract data types, templates without special syntax, OO with interfaces and multiple dispatch, statically typed, interpreted or compiled, portable, runs under linux/unix/windows.
