Some thoughts on Casting

[muriloadriano]

We should implement casting operations. The suggested syntax is:

x = Type(value);

There are some ideas of implementations of that:

• Internally on init() (where we have addMethod()) we could have:

addCast(CLEVER_INT, method_int_cast_name); // Method that casts an Int to the current type
addCast(CLEVER_STR, method_str_cast_name); // Same with String
...

• User classes (we could replace @ with cast):

class Foo {

function @Int(x) {

}

// ... or
cast std:collection:Set(x) {

}

}

What do you think?
