I don't think that's any difference at all. Javascript does use a sort
of Variant for all of its values.
So if you want dynamic:
a) have opDispatch forward the string to dynDispatch as a regular
(runtime) value, pack all parameters into Variants (or an array
thereof - probably better, or even one Variant that in turn packs an
array - feature recently implemented, yum), and return a Variant;
b) have dynDispatch return a Variant which will be then returned by
opDispatch.
It's not less powerful than discussed. It's more .
Yes, I think you're right that the parameters passed should be a
Variant[], not variadic.
Parameters to dynDispatch (the user-defined forwarding function), NOT
opDispatch. opDispatch can take _anything_.
Sorry if I'm repeating what you know already, but I am obsessing over a
small misunderstanding could end up hamstringing this very powerful feature.
So: opDispatch has absolutely no restrictions except a string in the
first static parameters position.
