Overload Func/Method/Operator/Types

Overload Funcs

Define overload func in inline func literal style (see overloadfunc1/add.gop):

func add = (
	func(a, b int) int {
		return a + b
	}
	func(a, b string) string {
		return a + b
	}
)

println add(100, 7)
println add("Hello", "World")

Define overload func in ident style (see overloadfunc2/mul.gop):

func mulInt(a, b int) int {
	return a * b
}

func mulFloat(a, b float64) float64 {
	return a * b
}

func mul = (
	mulInt
	mulFloat
)

println mul(100, 7)
println mul(1.2, 3.14)

Overload Methods

Define overload method (see overloadmethod/method.gop):

type foo struct {
}

func (a *foo) mulInt(b int) *foo {
	println "mulInt"
	return a
}

func (a *foo) mulFoo(b *foo) *foo {
	println "mulFoo"
	return a
}

func (foo).mul = (
	(foo).mulInt
	(foo).mulFoo
)

var a, b *foo
var c = a.mul(100)
var d = a.mul(c)

Overload Unary Operators

Define overload unary operator (see overloadop1/overloadop.gop):

type foo struct {
}

func -(a foo) (ret foo) {
	println "-a"
	return
}

func ++(a foo) {
	println "a++"
}

var a foo
var b = -a
a++

Overload Binary Operators

Define overload binary operator (see overloadop1/overloadop.gop):

type foo struct {
}

func (a foo) * (b foo) (ret foo) {
	println "a * b"
	return
}

func (a foo) != (b foo) bool {
	println "a != b"
	return true
}

var a, b foo
var c = a * b
var d = a != b

However, binary operator usually need to support interoperability between multiple types. In this case it becomes more complex (see overloadop2/overloadop.gop):

type foo struct {
}

func (a foo) mulInt(b int) (ret foo) {
	println "a * int"
	return
}

func (a foo) mulFoo(b foo) (ret foo) {
	println "a * b"
	return
}

func intMulFoo(a int, b foo) (ret foo) {
	println "int * b"
	return
}

func (foo).* = (
	(foo).mulInt
	(foo).mulFoo
	intMulFoo
)

var a, b foo
var c = a * 10
var d = a * b
var e = 10 * a
