Could you provide your 'with' function please?(checked last emails - can't
find) Right now it is not clear for me how this problem could be resolved.
As for your notes about "value/reference".. Could you describe with more
details?
In my example, I want to show that with this 'with' function you can
compile code that tries to change constant of value(struct) type. Let say
just by mistake, i.e. initially you wanted to just get values of this
struct constant.
So this 'with' function should be treated as hack, not as a good solution
for 'with' feature. (yes, for reference type it should work OK)
