Operator Overload Mac OS
MQL4 ReferenceLanguage BasicsFunctions
Every task can be divided into subtasks, each of which can either be directly represented in the form of a code, or divided into smaller sub-tasks. This method is called stepwise refinement. Functions are used for writing the code of sub-tasks to be solved. The code that describes what a function does is called function definition:
The overload works perfectly fine if I use any other type, but not for Object itself. As I was expecting, obj2 points to obj1 (and I am not trying to change that behaviour), but I have some code to run when an object is assigned to, but as I said before, the operator overload is ignored. Am I missing something? Operators that can be overloaded but are best not overloaded are: (1) logic and &&, Logic or Both the logical and the operator and the logical OR operator are the values of the left operand and the right operand, and the value of the right operand is computed only if the left operand cannot determine the result of the expression, which is known as the short-circuit evaluation (short-circuit evaluation).
All that is before the first brace is the header of the function definition, and what is between braces is the body of the function definition. The function header includes a description of the return value type, name (identifier) and formal parameters. The number of parameters passed to the function is limited and cannot exceed 64.
The function can be called from other parts of the program as many times as necessary. In fact, the return type, function identifier and parameter types constitute the function prototype.
Function prototype is the function declaration, but not its definition. Due to the explicit declaration of the return type and a list of argument types, the strict type checking and implicit typecasting are possible during function calls. Very often function declarations are used in classes to improve the code readability.
The function definition must exactly match its declaration. Each declared function must be defined.
Example:
double// return value type |
The return operator can return the value of an expression located in this operator. If necessary, the expression value is converted to the function result type. What can be returned: simple types, simple structures, object pointers. With the return operator you can't return any arrays, class objects, variables of compound structure type.
A function that returns no value should be described as that of void type.
Example:
Parameters passed to the function can have default values, which are defined by constants of that type.
Example:
int somefunc(double a, |
If any of parameters has a default value, all subsequent parameters must also have default values.
Example of incorrect declaration:
int somefunc(double a, |

It is unclear and inconsistent of what the method signature should be for overloading the operator. Here is a mailing list posting regarding this issue:
> For example, this does not work:

Okay, I'm an idiot. That does parse as expected. The problem is
with the equals method signature:
boolean equals( a )
will work. I tried several other combinations and only this one
worked.
So, it probably is a bug, and you should go ahead and report it.
Thanks,
Chris.
