273 :: Shortcut for nested variables possible?

• enurlyx (orginal) [2013-10-11T23:14:27+02:00] view original

  Is it possible to create a shortcut/reference for a nested variable?

  For example:

  
  var a = abc.xyz.uvw.addr  # wont work, because it is ptr of uvw but the proc needs a object.
  
  a.do_something()
  abc.xyz.uvw.do_something()
  Run

  uvw is not a ref

  Try:

  
  template a: expr = abc.xyz.uvw
  Run

  You can also use the actual type of abc.xyz.uvw in lieu of expr.
