Mixins are a powerful concept for object-oriented class composition. re-mix provides mixins for C# and Visual Basic .NET.

While C# and VB.NET are continuously improving, they still support only a single mechanism for class composition: single inheritance. Over the years, many other mechanisms have been tried, among them multiple inheritance, mixins and traits. These mechanisms allow for a more flexible composition of classes from various sources, therefore enabling new programming techniques that reduce code redundancy, increase the expressiveness of code and allow for a more direct mapping of mental models to code.

Some of the features of re-mix are:

Create mixins that add interfaces with implementations and state to other classes
Override class methods in mixins
Implement abstract mixin methods in classes that use mixins
Apply any number of mixins to any class
Apply mixins statically via attributes, or dynamically via code
Apply mixins on application startup without starting any tools, or at build-time as you prefer
Add and remove attributes via mixins
Mixins can derive from each other, and mixins can even be applied to mixins

What's the diffrence between mixins and extension methods?

mixins are a powerful concept to improve OOP structures. Unfortunately, mixins are not part of the .NET framework. re-mix provides mixins for C# and Visual Basic .NET.

In short, you will love mixins, if you

... have craved for multiple interitance support in .NET once in a while
... wished you could add stateful(!) code pieces to several non-related classes without messing up the inheritance hierarchy
