Summary
• Added
IDynamicLinksinterface to enable runtime polymorphism using virtual method dispatch• Modified
ILinks<TLinkAddress, TConstants>to extendIDynamicLinksfor backward compatibility• Created
LinksBaseabstract class as foundation for concrete dynamic implementations• Maintains all existing functionality while adding true dynamic polymorphism support
Changes Made
Implementation Details
The solution follows the pattern shown in the referenced C++ examples:
objecttypes and virtual dispatch like IFactory.hThis enables both approaches to coexist - developers can use the strongly-typed generic interface for performance-critical code and the dynamic interface for scenarios requiring runtime polymorphism.
