Is there any way to initialize a Sequential value not in one fellow swoop?
Like, can I declare it, then use a for loop to populate it, step by step?
As this could all happen inside a class body, the true immutability of the Sequential value could then kick in once the class instance construction phase has been completed.
Example:
Sequential<String> strSeq;
for (i in span(0,10)) {
strSeq[i] = "hello";
}
This code doesn't work, as I get this error:
Error:(12, 9) ceylon: illegal receiving type for index expression: 'Sequential' is not a subtype of 'KeyedCorrespondenceMutator' or 'IndexedCorrespondenceMutator'
So what I can conclude is that sequences must be assigned in one statement, right?
