Hi,
Yesterday I asked for an Erlang enhancement, such that I could
specify something like:
ape.getmemb('johnie').getmemb('leg').toe2
In the meantime I did some "re-inventing the wheel", and found out
how to tackle such things in a functional way.
Also www.erlang.org/user.html#assoc-1.2 offered inspiration, and
I'm happy now about the subject of "associative arrays".
By the way: I suppose that really enhancing Erlang is unpalatable,
because of the big installed base?
Kind regards,
Wouter Boeke

It depends on how it is done.
Personally, I'm very much in favour of ROK's abstract patterns, and I
represent a pretty large customer. ;)
It is important to keep supporting records for some time, but I don't
think that abstract patterns would make that difficult. Enhancements are
ok, as long as they are relevant and don't break your old code.
Regards,
Uffe
