MyObject.Create is impossible with classes on the heap. You need to
assign MyObject a pointer but you can't do that from within create.
sorry myobject is the pointer so a better example would be :
var strlist : Tstringlist;
strlist.create;
This should be easy as you know the pointer type.
Forward declarations are IMHO required because otherwise the compiler
would have to make additional passes(it does 3 AFAIK).
They are not required in a multipass compiler. If you cant resolve a
symbol on a single pass you can do so on a subsequent one.
Besides, they are seldom enough to be a problem.
Pain in the arse they are. Its annoying and makes use of the code
explorer a neccsity when dealing with large classes. Its a total waste
of my time.
How does python handle modularity btw?
WHat do you mean?
Im a Delphi programmer not a python one (though Ive done bits and pieces
in python) but I do envy its less verbose syntax as its just as clean
and clear.
jamie.
