However this works:

property Foo[AIndex: Integer; BIndex: Integer = 0]: Integer read GetFoo;
Ouch
What then about
  function GetFoo(AIndex: Integer = 0): Integer;
  property Foo[AIndex: Integer = 0]: Integer read GetFoo;
And if it compiles, which of those can you call
  Obj.Foo
  Obj.Foo[]
And what if you make that default property....
  Obj[] // ????

Those all don't compile. Even using my example above "Foo[42]" does not compile either, so while a default parameter can be declared the compiler won't allow the default parameters to be left out in the index clause.

Maybe we should forbid default parameters in the index clause in non-Delphi modes so that it's clear that this won't work?



As does this:
=== code begin ===

function GetFoo(AIndex: Integer; BIndex: Integer = 0): Integer;
property Foo[AIndex: Integer; BIndex: Integer]: Integer read GetFoo;
This is ok.

GetFoo can be called directly.
So long, as the property will fail, if called with only one index.
Yes, it indeed fails.
