Re: [Oorexx-devel] Question ad new .Message methods reply/replyWith

Those are not equivalent. The target message object is updated with the
supplied arguments and the copy is made after the update. The
original message object has a copy of the arguments used for the
invocation.

[Oorexx-devel] Question ad new .Message methods reply/replyWith

[Rony G. Flatscher]

While going through the send/With and start/With methods I "stumbled" over reply/With which I was 
not aware of that they got added.


If understanding correctly, then reply/With is the same as start/With just creating a copy of the 
target message object to dispatch. If so, the same effect can be simply achieved in plain ooRexx 
code like:


   dispatchedMsg=msg~copy~start/With(...)

If that is the case why would it be important to have new reply/With methods added for the .message 
class?
