In case of a presence of child contracts (`IntHolder` in this case), the main
|
||||
contract must be pointed out with the `main` keyword as shown in the example.
|

|

### Contract interfaces and polymorphism
|
||||
|
||||
Contracts can implement one or multiple interfaces, the contract has to define
|
||||
every entrypoint from the implemented interface and the entrypoints in both
|
||||
the contract and implemented interface should have the exact same type.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
contract interface Animal =
|
||||
entrypoint sound : () => string
|
||||
|
||||
contract Cat : Animal =
|
||||
entrypoint sound() = "Cat sound"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Contract interfaces can extend other interfaces, the extended interface has to
|
||||
declare all the entrypoints from the parent interface, and it can have
|
||||
additional entrypoints added to it. All the declarations in the extended
|
||||
interface must match (have the same type) with the declarations from the parent
|
||||
interface.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
contract interface II =
|
||||
entrypoint f : () => unit
|
||||
|
||||
contract interface I : II =
|
||||
entrypoint f : () => unit
|
||||
entrypoint g : () => unit
|
||||
|
||||
contract C : I =
|
||||
entrypoint f() = ()
|
||||
entrypoint g() = ()
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
It is only possible to implement (or extend) an interface that has been already
|
||||
defined earlier in the file (or in an included file), and therefore recursive
|
||||
interface implementation is not allowed in Sophia.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
// The following code would show an error
|
||||
|
||||
contract interface X : Z =
|
||||
entrypoint x : () => int
|
||||
|
||||
contract interface Y : X =
|
||||
entrypoint x : () => int
|
||||
entrypoint y : () => int
|
||||
|
||||
contract interface Z : Y =
|
||||
entrypoint x : () => int
|
||||
entrypoint y : () => int
|
||||
entrypoint z : () => int
|
||||
|
||||
contract C : Z =
|
||||
entrypoint x() = 1
|
||||
entrypoint y() = 1
|
||||
entrypoint z() = 1
