External base class

Reported by bahuvrihi | March 24th, 2009 @ 01:40 PM

At present, ExternalArchive/External::Base aren't great as base classes because they include a number of array methods. Ideally there would be some base class that is essentially blank... you could:

  • open/close
  • reindex
  • []/[]=/each (entry), fetch/put/each_str (string)
  • length, compact, clear

And not much else, maybe just a few protected methods. All other array methods would be added by a module or in a subclass.
