Dave,

I'm eager to read it. http://www.dvcon.org/events/eventdetails.aspx?id=108-2 When it's available, please send us a link.

Thanks!

Subject: RE: [sv-ec] Multiple inheritance

This "tweet" was in response to a paper I presented at DVCon on multiple inheritance. My proposal was to have the functionality of Java interfaces using C++ syntax and limited semantics of virtual inheritance. (The interface keyword is already in use for a different purpose). I'll post the paper as soon as the conference is over.
