class Foo
{
Int x := 0
}
class Test
{
static Void main()
{
f := Foo()
echo(f.x)
f.x := 9
}
}
the last line, f.x := 9 is incorrect: "Expected expression statement" in other languages i used this kind of statement to modify class props. For example in C# i can simply write
f.x = 9;
what's the way in Fantom to do this simple task?

:= is the initialization operator, you only use it when declaring a new variable.
= is the assignment operator as usual, so you also use:
f.x = 9
This differentiation is mainly used for auto type inference without the need for a special keyword like var and avoid stupid bugs of unintended initialization of new variables.

Very good, thank you for your explanation.
