in thread How can I inherit from Bit::Vector?

Thanks for the help!

Still, it seems that Bit::Vector seems designed not to allow inheritance. Almost all the methods, such as shift_left(), check to see that they are handed a genuine Bit::Vector. If it isn't a Bit::Vector an error is generated.

I'm beginning to think that I need to use a different strategy. Perhaps I should make an object that has a USES_A rather than an IS_A relationship with Bit:Vector.

It should work perfectly the first time! - toma

    Yah that approach would probably be best.

    I'd still be interested in hearing why the author chose to go through all of these hoops to prevent someone from inheriting Bit::Vector. This almost seems a bit silly.
