Discussion Extending the unextendable?

[Bribe]

I want an array struct to be able to be extended -- I don't want allocate/deallocate as I'm using my own indexing methods. However, I want this struct to be... extendable. Array structs cannot be extended, according to JassHelper.

I could think of converting the struct to a module and have the child struct extend it, then delegate an array struct instead of the interface so the user can have optional methods... but modules add to some bigger problems like bulky quantities of script text.

If you wanted to have an array struct be extendable, yet have optional methods, how would you go about it? I can't think of any pretty way to do this.

So everyone knows, this question was sort of answered in the http://www.thehelper.net/forums/showthread.php?t=152179 thread and Bribe left me this note after reading it

I've recently converted my structs/interfaces to "extends array" and "delegate" as well, seems to be working.

So this question has been answered = ).
