  • I understand the selector namespace aspect of traints. However, I'm still confused by the need for interfaces within (nested) traits. Can you elaborate on section 3.4 (from the paper)?

    The example they give is difficult for me to follow. How would this be handled in Class::Trait, and under what circumstances would you need it?

    • Which paper are you referring to? Do you mean the Scharli paper "Traits: Composable Units of Behavior"? There's no reference to interfaces there so I'm not sure if this is the paper you mean. As a guess, are you asking why composed traits might have unsatisfied method requirements which the class using the composed traits must provide? I can answer that pretty easily, but don't want to spend a lot of time getting into that if it's the wrong question :)
