Overloaded procedure

[Guionardo Furlan]

Hi there.

I've a set of overloaded procedures like this:

Show is a procedure that prints a value in a formatted way.

Code: [Select]

procedure Show(const AValue: string); overload; // no format
procedure Show(const AValue: TDateTime); overload; // formatdatetime
procedure Show(const AValue: Double); overload; // floattostr
The problem is that TDatetime is a Double, and the compiler can't do the distinction: unit1.pas(44,15) Error: Can't determine which overloaded function to call

This is the wrong way to do?

The solution is to rename the date version to something like:

procedure ShowDate(const AValue: TDateTime);
