How do I intercept a property set on a custom common object

[Paul Tyng]

Is there anyway to handle a property set on a custom CommonObject
implementation?

I tried overriding Put but that didn't seem to work.

Basically if the code has something like:

object.value = 'some string';

Where object is an instance of my own custom CommonObject
implementation, I want to handle that property set to do additional
special processing.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

I'm currently in the process of relocating to Seattle, but I'll take a
look as soon as I can.

Thanks.  I was hoping for a simple solution, but I was looking through
the F# (my understanding is limited) and it seems like for property
access goes through a different flow than function invocation.  When
accessing a property similar to:

test.abc

I see 2 hits to the InlineCache, one for 'test' and one for 'abc'.

But if executing:

test.abc()

I only see one hit to the InlineCache for 'abc' and then it hits the
CommonObject's implementation of Get(name) which finds the
FunctionObject instance.

So it seems like the property access and function invocation are
compiling to differing ways of accessing the object.

I would love to contribute but I'm trying to pick up the F# as I go so
its a bit slow currently and I can't really unwind it yet in my head,
but will let you know if I made any progress on my fork.
