Does GPC have structured constants, as found in Oregon and Vax Pascal ?
eg.
type ThreeNumbersType = record a, b, c: integer; end{record};
const FirstConst = ThreeNumbersType( 1, 2, 3 ); SecondConst = ThreeNumbersType( 42, 64, 96 );
procedure StructuredConsts; var fred, bill: ThreeNumbersType;
begin fred := FirstConst; bill := SecondConst; end;
I know there's the schemas, but they change these from a constant declaration to a type or variable declaration and I'm trying to get the simplest possible (machine) translation from Oregon Pascal to GPC.
Here's hoping the answer is "yes, do it like this ..."
