I forgot:
5) Now the interpreter does an automatic conversion between all array classes
(except embedded arrays that are not real arrays).
So now you can write:
Dim MyArray As Byte[] = [ 0, 1, 2 ]
Whereas you had to write that before:
Dim MyArray As Byte[] = [ CByte(0), CByte(1), CByte(2) ]
You can do that too:
Dim MyArray As Integer[] = [ "1", Pi, Now ]
The conversion is done too when passing arguments to functions.
At the moment, only native classes can implement a specific conversion
routines.
It will be now possible to add an automatic conversion from Collection to a
Variant[] (for example).
Maybe in the future I will allow that for Gambas classes, but I am not sure it
is a good idea. As conversion is done automatically under the hood, I prefer
that feature to be clearly defined and limited.
