[fpc-devel] function overload ?

[Gennadiy Poryev]

Hi!

I had a dream :)
Wouldn't it be nice if a function overload took care not only of formal 
parameter list (per docs) but also of result type? So the following may work
function My(const a : Integer) : AnsiString; overload;
function My(const a : Integer) : WideString; overload;
by substitution of the function depending on the expected type of the 
expression it is being called from?
