[Gambas-user] New feature in the Array classes

[Brian G]

This way each method could simply accommodate the set it is working with. 

sorted_array.add() does the correct thing 
array.add() does the correct thing 
ETC. 

the interface is maintained correctly. 
etc. 

Thank You 
Brian G

For simplicity and clarity, would it not be better to just have a sorted array as a base type, rather than all these compromises. 

a = new sorted_array[] 
and 
a = new array[]

For backward-compatibility, I think it's better to leave the current 
method untouched. 



Because of method overriding? 
It would be nice, if you could leave out optional arguments when overriding, then this could also be implemented as optional argument.
