make eosio.token inheritable #12

It should be possible to inherit from eosio.token class, so that new tokens would not have to just copy the token source code.

So, all flesh should be moved to a token.hpp inside eosiolib, and eosio.token.cpp should only have EOSIO_ABI call.

Any news about this issue? I think that having base contracts like eosio.token inheritable is very important as the platform grows, making all the contracts code extendable without copy pasting stuff around. Also is there a way to make the abi generator to properly generate abi including base contract actions, tables, etc... from what I tried it generates only abi for the current contract, ignoring the base contracts it extends.

any progress on this? i tried to extend from exiting contract, and add the base class actions into the abi file, seems not work, when call the base class action , following error prompted

assertion failure with error code: 8000000000000000000

Transferring this issue to the new reference token contract repo.

Agree. The token contract should be inheritable. Any progress on this? I would like to extend the base functionality for shielded transactions using zk-snarks and make it available for everyone. Inheritance of the base eosio.token contract would be the most elegant solution to this.
