Hi,

Has pointers to procedures been planned for inclusion in a future version of PB?

No, I do not mean simply getting the address, I mean being able to do something like this:

Code: Select all

*my_function.l(foo.l, bar.w) = @TheRealThing()PrintN(Str(*my_function(1, 2)))

It's not minimalist - I'm increasing efficiency by reducing input effort.

Code: Select all

*my_function.l = @TheRealThing()PrintN(Str( CallFunctionFast(*my_function,1,2) ))

should be enough !?

Yes, I guess that would be good enough, thanks
Sorry, I didn't even realise this was already part of the PB libraries. I really need to pay more attention.

Thanks.
