Maurilio, <<< So I'd prefer something a little slower but which can help me pinpoint my errors (like in the code where an object stores a reference to itself and has a destructor). >>>
Here is a proof, of how easy it is to fall victim to intentionally misleading "warnings". xHarbour has NO problem with objects storing references to self, and destructors of such objects will work perfectly. The "problem" Przemek was warning people of, is when the PROGRAMMER, for some STUPIDITY, decides to STORE a reference to the very object being destroyed, while INSIDE the DESTRUCTOR code!!! Such practice is worse than stupid, it's simply unacceptable. <<< Anyway, I don't think that you're trying to escape the issue, I say that this is a 'philosophical' issue because the truth lies on both sides, and as such it is not possible to decide, once for all, what is the right thing to do; they're both right and both have compromises in what they try to accomplish. >>> Rest assured that Przemek will continue ridiculing xHarbour, and accusing us of disguising technical problems, as "philosophical" issues. IMO, because he does not seem to be willing to accept, that others have the right to make choices against his views. Sadly, he seems to think he owns exclusive rights to logic, instead of accepting that some *choices* are a matter of *personal* *preferences* - issues that can NOT be argued, as they do not have any right/wrong properties.
