The current pattern to explicitly perform either a delegatecall or staticcall often requires adding a lot of boilerplate using abi.encodeWithSelector() followed by target.staticcall(data) and return data decoding.
A far more user friendly approach would be to repurpose the call properties syntax and allow the compiler to generate the underlying code.
As an example:
(uint a, uint b) = IContract(addr).myFunction{static: true}();
Similarly for delegatecall:
(uint a, uint b) = IContract(addr).myDelegateFunction{delegate: true}();
Real world examples of code that could be far more simple if this feature was to be implemented:
Couldn’t find any issues or topics that recommend the same syntax before.
