I like how in C++ child classes inherit parent attributes/fields/members.
class CPolygon {
protected:
int width, height;
public:
void set_values (int a, int b)
{ width=a; height=b;}
};
class CRectangle: public CPolygon {
public:
int area ()
{ return (width * height); }
};
In this case, the CRectangle just starts using width & height without declaring it. How possible will this be to do in OIO? I've tried this:
$ cat test_me.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use warnings;
use Top::Middle;
my $obj = Top::Middle->new(
'info' => 'some_data_or_whatever'
);
$obj->method();
exit 0;
$ cat Top.pm
use strict;
use warnings;
package Top;
use Object::InsideOut;
my @info :Field('Standard' => 'info');
my %init_args :InitArgs = (
'INFO' => {
'Field' => \@info,
},
);
1;
$ cat Top/Middle.pm
use warnings;
use strict;
package Top::Middle;
use Object::InsideOut 'Top';
sub method {
my $self = shift;
my $string = $info[$$self];
print "$string\n";
}
1;
But I get this:
# ./test_me.pl
Global symbol "@info" requires explicit package name at Top/Middle.pm line 12.
Compilation failed in require at ./test_me.pl line 6.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./test_me.pl line 6.
If I start using Exporter, which doesn't seem right, it doesn't work either.
$ cat Top.pm
use strict;
use warnings;
package Top;
use Object::InsideOut 'Exporter';
BEGIN {
our @EXPORT_OK = qw(@info);
}
my @info :Field('Standard' => 'info');
my %init_args :InitArgs = (
'INFO' => {
'Field' => \@info,
},
);
1;
$ cat Top/Middle.pm
use warnings;
use strict;
package Top::Middle;
use Object::InsideOut 'Top' => [ qw(@info) ];
sub method {
my $self = shift;
my $string = $info[$$self];
print "$string\n";
}
1;
This is the result then:
# ./test_me.pl
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at Top/Middle.pm line 13.
