MI class library version 2.03 released

[Hugo Etchegoyen <hetchegoyen@...>]

Hi,

This release of the class library is backwards compatible with the 
previous ones and adds the possibility of defining __get() and __set() 
methods to get control of indexing.

This is useful for defining classes that may work like arrays or tables 
but do not store their elements in the main body of the object. Then 
__get() and __set() are called each time elements are read or assigned. 
One interesting application is proxy classes giving access to remote data.

This feature is based on __index() and __newindex() handlers and 
therefore has some cost in terms of performance, but these handlers are 
only installed in classes that use __get() and __set(). Other classes 
are unaffected.
