There's no garbage collection, you have to free the object instance
explicitly with the
Corba type of interfaces in FPC. Corba interfaces do not descend from IUnknown.

Is that the correct behaviour? I thought scope would be applied outwards
so, first it would look at local procedures, then methods of the same class
and lastly glob

since that, and the article is a good tutorial about unit testing using
the fpcunit framework.
Anyway, just ask here if you have specific questions about fpcunit and

Hmm, no idea where the problem is, can you
ner (approx.the number of the elements you are going to store
or more), you can test it with different hash functions and see through
the statistics which one is better (the longer the chains i.e. more void
slots, the longer the fetch times).

I would create a procedure in the TTestCase class that would internaly

s from Delphi and translated the
Junit core testing framework from Java in a day or too:
http://camelos.sourceforge.net/fpcUnit.html , so,
no doubt for me that FPC is mature for serious programming.
If you need help for your article or you need a review, just ask (
would not implement it this way :-).
TStringList is a cute class (I like it very much) and is an swiss army
knife for Delphi, but nothing more, there are cases where other
containers could do better.
Where are Hash Tables, B-Trees, etc? A simple interface for lists is
not an innovation IMHO.

...use MyRef...
finally

scendant of TList at
all. TList was not designed to be an ancestor class like TStrings for
example. They would be better off creating TObjectList (derived from TObject
and not TList) as a wrapper class around the TList.
