Eek Status Update
Two months ago I predicted that I will need two months to finish the specification and, surprise, I lied :). I am almost through the regular features, roughly comparable to Java's feature set. But the specification is still missing
- Generics/class parameters. I have a good idea what they will look like, as shown here, but writing it down will take same time
- Exceptions. No problem, but needs to be done.
- Constraints. Since my entry in february nothing has changed, I will probably specify them exactly as described in the blog
- Enum. Not a real problem.
- Annotations (alias attributes in C#). Will be very simple, just a list of Elements in front of classes and class members.
- Co-Routines/Generators. Should be easy.
- Delegates and Events. Now they are a real problem, actually the problem number 1. I have many different ideas, but am not happy with any of them. They will probably not look like described January
- Closures. The base idea is simple, code in curly braces ('{}') returns a delegate. But I don't know how to name arguments, this mostly depends on the missing delegate syntax.
