Yes, I'm asking for the wrong thing. What I should have said
is that given UFCS, should there be an alternate way of
initializing a delegate, something along the lines of:
void delegate(int) dg = (a, &bar);
Well, if you know the instance, you can do this:
void delegate(int) dg = (int v) { a.bar(v); }
But this would have to go inside main.
This seems a long way around the houses, is difficult to
understand, and the result is a delegate with a frame pointer for
the main function, which then has a nested function
void anon(int v) { a.bar(v); }
which somehow does not feel right, and if the compiler isn't
clever, seems like another level of indirection.
Syntax like this (changed my mind ;=)) would be nice:
void delegate(int) dg = &a.bar;
I'm not particularly looking for a way of doing it at this
moment, just whether it's something that could be done in the
future.
