Ok - to illustrate how useful this would be - here is how it could be used
with the new syntax:
Dim myRef As myClass
if myRef FROM getA() <> nil then
.. do something with myRef
elseif myRef FROM getB() <> nil then
.. do something with myRef
elseif myRef FROM getC() <> nil then
.. do something with myRef
end if
...
You can just define:
sub FROM(byref a as Object, b as Object) returns Object
a = b
return b
end
then:
if FROM(myRef, getA()) <> nil then
.. do something with myRef
elseif FROM(myRef, getB()) <> nil then
.. do something with myRef
...
