Robert Dewar presents some good reasons to use "+" for conversion
operators, and my experience with large systems presents some good
reasons not to. I'm still undecided, and welcome further arguments from
either side (or the middle).
What I would like to see is the ability to use the type name for
conversion operations. I realize I did not submit a revision request for
this, so I have only myself to blame. Then user-defined conversions
would be the same as predefined conversions:
I : Integer := Get;
F : Float := Float (I); -- Predefined conversion uses type name
type George is ...;
type Martha is ...;
function George (Value : Martha) return George;
M : Martha := Get;
G : George := George (Martha);
