- What is the fundamental problem.
When a delegate is created information about it's outer scope
is lost instead of being stored in it's ptr.
That doesn't mean anything. No information is stored into a ptr
except an address in memory.
- Why this fundamental problem is a language issue and not a
lib one.
Looks self-evident.
It look self evident to me that the earth is flat when I look
through the window.
- How does you proposition solve it.
It stores the information about delegate's outer scope wasting
(oh God, how many, especially in contrast to GC allocation) a
few bytes.
I don't care about the cost. You have made no point in 3 pages in
favor of the change you propose. Not even an invalid point I can
disagree on.
As everything I have written above is known, I still don't
understand why you are telling about signal fixing as a main
problem as it is just an example of problems that occurs when
we throw away outer scope information without any practical
reason, IMO.
It is an example of a library interface issue (very real). To
propose a language change, you must show that this limitation is
in fact a symptom of a deeper cause, which it at language level
(so that must be fixed at language level).
