Hi,

I want to have a type which is an array of 8 bit values, I want the default iterator to be the normal array loop.

But then I want to add more iterators which return different types but constructed from the array, i.e. a 32-bit value and a sub-array.

1. Can this be done on the base type or do I need to create new types from the base type?

2. if 1. can be done, do these iterators all need to be one package or can I put them in child packages?

Thanks,
Luke.
