How will Delphi handle the following case with overloads and different types:



unit test;

interface

type
  List<T> = class
    data : T;
    constructor(aData: T);
    procedure dump;
  end;

implementation

procedure show(i:integer);overload;
begin
end;

procedure show(s:string);overload;
begin
end;

constructor List<T>(aData: T);
begin
  Data := aData;
end;

procedure List<T>.Dump;
begin
  Show(Data);
end;

end.
