In theory, you should call "initialize" for every record/array
containing management types in your allocated block to be safe.
And in practice, you also have to call "finalize" again for every
record/array containing managed types (and for every separate managed
type too, I forgot to mention this earlier although I hope that was
implicitly clear) in that allocated block before freeing it again (to
prevent memory leaks).
Thanks for your reply. I feel comfortable calling "initialize" and "finalize" for every managed
type in the memory block that I allocate/deallocate manually. However, can you elaborate why
"initialize" and "finalize" must be called for the containing record/array too ? If my
understanding of your reply is correct ?
