It seems to me that there is a delphi extension where the variable Result can be used for any function return value. Eg: function sum( a, b: integer ): integer; begin Result := a; Result := Result + b; end; Given this, I expected operator to work the same way: operator + ( a, b: integer ): integer; begin Result := a + b; end; But this results in "parse error before `:'". I would think the above operator code should work given the Result extension. Would it make sense to allow this? Perhaps giving an error if the Result extension is disabled?
