On implementing a linked list I hit to some unexpected (doesn't mean incorrect though) behaviour.
ptest = ^test; test = record p: pointer; end; new(mytest); When I allocate "mytest" the pointer variable "p" is initialized as $ffffffff instead of nil as I did suspect. In my code though I am relying on the fact that new pointers are indeed nil so I can allocate them accordingly. How can I force and rely on the fact that p is always nil? What is the correct procedure here? TIA, Darius
