Would you mind going into a bit more depth about Eiffel's generics? It's not obvious to me from Wikipedia how they differ from normal parametric polymorphism.

Did you read this, which is linked to from my earlier link?

I may not be able to throw more light on it than that, sorry, since I'm not an expert on these areas, just interested.

Thanks, I completely missed that "Basic/Unconstrained genericity" was a subsection of "Genericity in Eiffel" when I first saw that page.
