I would like to see Structures to be allowed in procedure returns and arguments, and also allow structures to assined like normal varablies like Me.person=You.Person

that would help me alot in my projects as i always use structures i hate it when i want to return a structure and i have to return a pointer and have the code go to other procedures (or have the normal code) have it rip apart the structure thru pokes to get the data

can be done already;

Code: Select all

Structure FOO
   parm1.l
EndStructure
structmyfoo.FOO

Procedure.l FillFoo(structmyfoo.l)
  *myfoo.FOO=structmyfoo
    myfoo\parm1=1
    ProcedureReturn *myfoo
EndProcedure

structmyfoo.FOO=FillFoo(structmyfoo)

at least I think that is the way it works.
