Hey, I was wondering if it is possebly to declare a class in c++, and define only SOME of the members in c++. And define the rest of the methods in angelscript. Is this poss?

No AngelScript can't do that.

But You might implement a workaround.

Some Python binding libraries use delegates do mimic class extensions. This method can also be used in AngelScript.

Basically You extend the class in c++ and make wrappers for scripted function calls. Extending a class is then a matter of telling an instance of the wrapperclass which script functions to call.

That's not quite the way you know from c++ but it works and you can change method implementation of an instance at runtime.

In a future version it will be possible to declare a class in AngelScript that inherits from an application registered object.

This is still quite far away though.
