Hi,
Im wondering if FPC Team have plans to support Record Methods/Operators
in future versions of FPC
I read the actual "Future plans" and the most closed item is "RTL:: More
compatibility with later Delphi versions."
But it do not means that records can be changed.
I want to implement my ValueTypes using record with implicit operators
and constructor/destructor, like this code written by a friend, Lee Nover.
TSpecifier = record
S: AnsiString;
WS: WideString;
Intf: IInterface;
class operator Implicit(const S: AnsiString): TSpecifier;
class operator Implicit(const C: Cardinal): TSpecifier;
class operator Implicit(const D: Double): TSpecifier;
class operator Implicit(const I: Integer): TSpecifier;
class operator Implicit(const I64: Int64): TSpecifier;
class operator Implicit(const V: TValue): TSpecifier;
class operator Implicit(const WS: WideString): TSpecifier;
class operator Implicit(const Intf: IInterface): TSpecifier;
class operator Implicit(const Spec: TSpecifier): AnsiString;
class operator Implicit(const Spec: TSpecifier): Cardinal;
class operator Implicit(const Spec: TSpecifier): Double;
class operator Implicit(const Spec: TSpecifier): Integer;
class operator Implicit(const Spec: TSpecifier): Int64;
class operator Implicit(const Spec: TSpecifier): TValue;
class operator Implicit(const Spec: TSpecifier): WideString;
class operator Implicit(const Spec: TSpecifier): IInterface;
case NativeType: Integer of
varInteger: (I: Integer);
varInt64: (I64: Int64);
varLongWord: (C: Cardinal);
varDouble: (D: Double);
varObject: (O: TValue);
end;
My plans is to have a single framework compatible with Delphi 2007/2009
and FPC, so Ill not use some D2009 only resources, but implicit
operators make the live of users very better to write less and better code.
Can I have any hope about this subject?
