Description

This has been an issue for a long time and must be addressed. It is silly to have to cast the result of a equality comparison to a bool when the result should be boolean already.

there was a missing symbol, referencing the opEqual within Object ... didn't decode the typeflags but assumed it was an instance which returned an int. Had the impression that the compiler was generating additional references within the object file
