Maybe something from Delphi I’m not familiar with.
It's usually used in the context of OLE automation though one could also use this with independently of OLE/COM. For an example see here: https://www.freepascal.org/~michael/articles/word/word.pdf > That’s too bad, a single colon matches the declaration better and looks nice. An assignment is the logical choice cause you're assigning a value to a parameter. A colon is used for a declaration, which is a completely different kind of "operation". Regards, Sven
