Well, if I'm not inventing capabilities, in C the syntax is fairly
direct (and forgive that with several dozen languages mixed in my head I
cannot write any one correctly without manual in lap, which I don't have
these days):
if
(
(
aSomestructTypedVariable =
aSomestructReturningFunction
(
lots,
of,
parms
)
).booleanPart
)
{
usefulVal = aSomestructTypedVariable.usefulPart;
}
Does Ada support a similar "assignment en passant" mechanism?
xanthian.
(Does C return structures, for that matter?)
