method calls on $self

2005-07-07 Thread Robin Redeker
Hi, i just wanted to ask what was about the method calling syntax on $self, and why does method () not work for calling a method on $self? (like in C++) cya, Robin -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] / [EMAIL PROTECTED] Robin Redeker

รข. However, you don't need finalizers for that style of management. (I'm not arguing for timely destruction, I am just wondering about the theoreticel usefulness of a finalizer method, and cannot find any). Most of this thought is from portland pattern repository's wiki: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?FinalizeInsteadOfProperDestructor robin -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] / [EMAIL PROTECTED] Robin Redeker

a little overhead, but in a fast and deterministic O(1) way. And how do you want to implement glib objects with parrot? They are refcounted. robin -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] / [EMAIL PROTECTED] Robin Redeker

struction. (correct me there..) So, what would happen if i have many marked objects and call subroutines often? Or are there any other plans? What do other languages do, which have refcounting and want to port to parrot? cya, Robin -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] / [EMAIL PROTECTED] Robin Redeker
