It has interfaces which gives much of the ability at lighter weight.. 2. Java originally was intended for set top boxes. That is too heavyweight a feature. 3. Study Eiffel. implementing it is quite tricky, especially when you get name clashes. you might see it in Java 11 or so, or whatever language inherits the Java mantle. . -- Roedy Green Canadian Mind Products http://mindprod.com The greatest shortcoming of the human race is our inability to understand the exponential function. ~ Dr. Albert A.
