I don't know about anyone else, but I'm really taking offense to his [john
e] broad characterization of RPG programmers...

Ok, maybe i encountered two, in my 20 yrs of RPG experience...

But i encountered many on this forum with (some) OO knowledge, or
programming knowledge / interest in general.

This forum is in no way representative of RPG programmers.

I suppose that every knowledgable RPG programmer (i.e. is interested in
programming in general) reads this forum.

The programming knowledge / interest of the average RPG programmer is
embarrassing...

John

You have encountered one now - who has known of that stuff for years.

Namespaces / overloading has nothing to do with OO.
OO is all about encapsulation.
You don't encapsulate anything with namespaces/overloading.

OORPG... please

First try to make the current version of RPG a bit more sane...

And why bother, i never encountered an RPG programmer who even heard
about terms like "encapsulation" or even "variable scoping", let alone use
it.
