Note how common this looks compared to the original.
One point is that you could do the above with a local (and named)
procedure
as well, and still have all the context. At the very least you would
not be
raping pascal's readability by putting a
complete procedure declaration inside a code block.
How would you preserve the context without finding some place
somewhere (on the heap) to store the current values of a, b, and c?
Procedure SomeOuter;
Var
d,e,f : SomeType;
Procedure
SomeInner(targetobject:ttargetobject;a:integer;b:someobject;c:string)
begin
targetobject.destinationprocedure(a,b,c);
end;
begin
Targethread.queue(@SomeInner(aobject,d,e,f));
end;
No difference with 'closure', except more readable.
Closures can be returned as a function result but nested procedure not
(more strictly, this can be complied but will not work because of
lifetime of nested procedure).
Of course, but what Michael means is: closure support does not require
necessarily anonymous proceudures/functions/methods.
It would be probably more clear to write and this more pascalish:
Procedure SomeOuter;
Var
d,e,f : SomeType;
Lambda Procedure
SomeInner(targetobject:ttargetobject;a:integer;b:someobject;c:string)
begin
targetobject.destinationprocedure(a,b,c);
end;
begin
Targethread.queue(@SomeInner(aobject,d,e,f));
end;
We don't need lambda expressions after all to implement controll
statements like e.g. smalltalk.

OK, agreed, this is more readable than Delphi syntax. But ...
1) If we implement lamdas is FPC we will have to support Delphi syntax.
2) lambda systax is usually as short as possible, but this is not
"pascalish".
