| Summary | 0000721: RfC: Extended syntax for declaring arguments and variables holding multiple types | ||||
| Description | Maybe this can't be resolved in any decent/elegant manner... Checking of types (compile-time or runtime) can be of significant help to programmers. Unfortunately, once you want to have two types for an argument, you have to use <mixed> which disables all checks. Some syntax like string|string* strs; for a variable/argument able to hold a string or an array of strings (but no other type) would help in this case. This is the syntax we use in func_spec in the driver sources for defining the efuns. There may be syntaxes which are easier to implement in our compiler... | ||||
