Myxin - Simple Mixins for C#

Myxin is a very simple utility to inject methods from multiple base classes into a single class implementation. This may be used to add common behaviour in multiple classes that do not derive from the same base class.

• Mixin definition at Wikipedia
• Getting Started
• Advanced topics (TBD ... :-) )
  • [Using Myxin as a pre-build command in Visual Studio
  • Using mixins as poor man's multiple inheritance
  • Defining events in mixin templates
  • Overriding existing OnEvent() methods in a mixin template
  • Grouping autogenerated files to reduce clutter in Solution Explorer
• Myxin.exe command line reference (see - Documentation)

Showcase

I've successfully used Myxin in my own projects, have a look at http://streambolicscore.codeplex.com/ and especially the Streambolics.Gui namespace where mixins are used to add drag-n-drop, BeginUpdate/Endupdate and Disposing methods to forms, user controls and custom controls.

Source code

For an unknown reason, the "Source Code" tab sometimes says that there are not available changesets, I don't know why. On the right hand side there is a "download" link that will download the latest version of the sources...
