they implement the Lock interface as well as the File interface.
An interface may contain a type name T in place of a method specification.
T must denote another, complete (and not forward-declared) interface type.
Using this notation is equivalent to enumerating the methods of T explicitly
in the interface containing T.
type ReadWrite interface {
Read, Write (b Buffer) bool;
}
type File interface {
ReadWrite; // same as enumerating the methods in ReadWrite
Lock; // same as enumerating the methods in Lock
Close();
}
Forward declaration:
A interface type consisting of only the reserved word "interface" may be used in
a type declaration; it declares an incomplete interface type (§Type declarations).
