Indeed, but that's not the point. The point would be to document the technique and, if at all possible, in a place that's easy to reach (the aforementioned thread in the 'Documentation' forum).
Speaking of which, I'm still working on documenting the implementations for the 23
Object-Oriented Design Patterns documented by the Gang of Four (22 actually; all of them but the
iterator pattern, since FreeBasic doesn't provide the mechanisms to implement it -and overloading the for-next operator isn't the same thing).
Also a suggestion: it would be very nice if the Wiki provided a direct link to that thread, preferably right there in the front page, since it's a pretty useful resource (and will only get better with time).
