func performWith(_ value: T)

var _connections: [Connection<B>] = []
public typealias Connections = Any<Collection> where Collection.Index == Int, Collection.Iterator.Element == B
// Immutable view without `append` etc.
public connections: Connections { return self._connections }
public func register(_ connection: Connection<B>) { … }
public func performWith(_ value: B) {
self._connections.forEach { $0.performWith(value) }
}
}
</code></pre>
<p>The main idea is to link different nodes (class instances) and call a function on the other end with a specific type parameter. Enums with associated types would come really handy here.</p>
