Hi, In Delphi you can overload the Explicit operator. This makes is possible to have a type TTypeX and TTypeY and cast one into the other. To do that, implement an operator overloader: operator Explicit(const AValue: TTypeX): TTypeY. // implement converstio from TTypeX to TTypeY.
Then you can do stuff like var tx: TTypeX; ty: TTypeY; begin tx := TTypeX.Create; ty := TTypeY(tx); end; Is something like this possible in FPC?
