Re: [Objectscript-users] Addition to OScript syntax

[<ar...@va...>]

I'm glad you understand what i mean. I was not sure if it was clearly
stated below. I have based this on the LPC language created by Lars Pensj=
=F6
for his LP-MUD. It supports the "::" to point at specific inherited
objects. It also uses "::method()" as the "super" qualifier used in Java.

But i think it is just a matter of syntax choice on how to implement this=
.
I think what you proposed will get the job done as well.

In what version of OScript did you implement the qualified "this" syntax?
