Function Overloading

#1 Post by bodgy » 19 Dec 2010 11:28

For those who make their own libraries, this would be a nice extra to allow function overloading.

Hello,

I will pass that suggestion to our developers,
they will take this into consideration in our future development.

Thank you for your proposal.

Best regards,

I honestly don't think this is a useful request. To do so will compromise the effectiveness of the compiler and only serve to add unnecessary bloat for coding convenience.

@bodgy: Coming from a C++ or C#, Java ect background I can see why you would want this kind of feature. But it's an 8-bit microprocessor with very limited memory resources. Learn to work within the limitations of the machine and the C compiler framework. It's really not that hard and typing a few extra lines won't kill you.
