From the above example "Mytest.StringArray" can only evaluate to
TTestObjectEnumerator. Nothing else.
Well, this is IMHO not correct. The array is also a possibility.
The compiler encounters Mytest.StringArray - at that point he has 2
possibilities. It's an array (and an index must expected) or it is an
enumerator (and nothing must be expected), but at this point the
compiler
cannot decide without looking at the context.
There is no array. "property StringArray[Index: Integer]" is not an
array and cannot be evaluated as an array.
Please, you know what I mean... It is an "array property".
Sorry - I didn't mean it bad/ironic/whatsoever. I just thought you meant
that:
MyArray := Mytest.StringArray;
might be a valid assignment for
TTest = class
public
property StringArray[Index: Integer]: string read GetString;
end;
TMyArray = array of string;
If it was a valid assignment, there would be 2 possibilities indeed and
the compiler would need to check the left side to resolve the overload:
MyArray := Mytest.StringArray;
MyEnumerator := Mytest.StringArray;
But such syntax is invalid for indexed (array) properties.
