Hey Rasmus, please try and keep these replies in the appropriate thread...
And bottom post please ...
I am in favor of eliminating the read-only/write-only keywords and implementing no
"special code" to make what was read-only/write-only language enforced. I
think the alternatives with final are just fine and good enough and will let userland
programming enforce it if they so desire.
But the question still remains. Isn't a read only variable simply a 'const'? Why
do we need anything more than that? It explains exactly why it has been defined
without any ambiguity and works everywhere.
write-only is a more 'specialist' concept as you need information back to
confirm that it has been set, or if there was an error. Simply writing a value
blind makes no sense?
