It's relatively "easy" to implement assigning a nested function to function
references. However assigning a nested function variable to a function reference is much
harder.
Assigning a function reference to a nested function variable is hard as well.
I'm getting lost with the terms now I think.
If your function takes a function reference parameter and you assign it a nested function pointer,
this is difficult? I believe this was Michaels request in that code snippet.
Sven will need to confirm, but as I understand it:
Procedure DoDemo(aTest : TProc);
Procedure MyTest;
Procedure DoSub;
begin
end;
begin
DoDemo(DoSub)
end;
is easy.
but
Procedure DoDemo(aTest : TProc);
Procedure MyTest;
Var
ASub : procedure is nested;
begin
aSub:=SomeFunctionThatReturnsANestedProc;
DoDemo(aSub);
end;
is difficult.
Michael.
