Using the "type" behind the "=" tells the compiler to declare a new type
based on the right side.
So a "Double" and a "Real" are not assignment compatible and can have
different sets of operator overloads.
Thanks for the answer.
I already suspected such a definition.
But why is it not part of the documentation?
If nobody takes care of the documentation anymore
then it should better be removed at all.
I am well aware that documentation needs updating.
The SVN logs will convince you that it is updated on a regular basis.
I usually respond positively to all requests for updates, as my other reply
proves.
That is, provided they are put in a positive form, and not with a dosis of
poison as you just provided.
If you insist on being negative, please find another mailing list to do so.
Michael.
