David Morton asks
Is there a way to overload the assignment operator ":=" ?
No, not directly (for many reasons the kind of simple minded approach
you suggested, though it seems reasonable at first, does not work).
(i.e. cannot easily be made to work from a language desigfn point of view)
However, look at non-limited controlled types and the Adjust procedure.
I think you will find you can do what you want!
