How You may extent the NetRexx Class Rexx (example Rexx Indexed String)

[ThSITC]

Hello There,

I did find a way, Years ago, with the help of Kermit Kiser, who
unfortunately did die too early (we are missing You all, Kermit), to
EXTEND the class Rexx.

My requirements those times have been, that I wanted to know from the
NetRexx DECLARATION, whether a Variable is a NetRexx Indexed String or not.

Mainly just for Documentation purposes, when printing out the program
later ...

The solution I came up (after Kermit did change a bit in the class Rexx
and the Translator) has been:

/*************************************************************************/

/* for Details. Note that the method names have been adjusted for Java   */
/* naming conventions since the first Rexx2Nrx release, back in 2001!    */

/* RexxStem: declare Rexx Stams as own class (for documentation)     */
/*                (c) Thomas.Schneider, Sept. 2001                   */
/*********************************************************************/

options binary
package Rexx2Nrx.Rexx2RTP
class RexxStem extends Rexx

method RexxStem(default=Rexx '') public
    super(default)
    return this

Hope this does help a bit ...

Kindly, Thomas.
