Behavior identical to that in C where a pointer to 'void' can be implicitly converted to and from any pointer to object type. Furthermore, FreeBASIC even allows implicit conversion between an 'Any Ptr' and a procedure pointer, and vice versa.

I second this request. Base could be implemented as a 'hidden member' (hidden in the sense as This is a hidden parameter) and it doesn't even have to be a reserved word.

In terms of execution time, I find a very significant performance degradation with '-gen gas64' compared to '-gen gcc' only in the following two cases: - 'placement New' or 'placement New[]', without 'Any'. - 'overload New' or 'overload New[]', without 'Any'. ('New' or 'New[]', without 'Any' is OK). Can you look specifically at how memory is zeroed in the '-gen gas64' case compared to the '-gen gcc' case, and this applied to both 'placement New' or 'placement New[]', and 'overload New' or 'overload...

I started the topic "Validity/Behavior of 'ANY' initializer versus datatypes with default constructor": https://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=33278 to discuss and decide on the usage and behavior of 'Any' versus objects with constructors. Currently, the behavior of 'Any' varies greatly, depending on the data type and declaration type. Therefore, processing of this bug report is suspended for the time being.

Abstract: - The problem is a very significant degradation in the execution time of 'New[]' compared to 'Redim' for a large memory allocation and when the data type has no constructor (and the 'Any' initializer is not used). - The analysis showed that this is due to the call to 'alloc' + 'memset(0)' in the 'New' / 'New[]' code, and that for large allocated buffers, the allocated memory provided is already set to zero, and therefore 'memset(0)' is redundant in this case. - The fix is simple: For 'New'...
