Thanks. This is sort-of too verbose when use. I have no comments
about how to define it, but when use it, can we just use:
ProcessArray(someintarray); ?
No. Generics are specialized with "<SomeType>", so not using it for
procedures/functions/methods as well is inconsistent.
The complier should be able to "specialize" it implicitly because it
knows someintarray is array of integer?
alternatively, how about this:
var
proc_ints: specialize ProcessArray<LongInt>;
begin
proc_ints(someintarray);
end;
use it without explicit specialize is best, however.
No. In non-Delphi modes specializations require "specialize". This is
for consistency of the language and also for simplification of the
parser in those modes.
And just in case: The syntax is not up to debate.
