Hi folks, I'm currently working on an complex C++ application (which I, if it would have to be rewritten from scratch, would do in Java instead ;-o) and I wonder whether it's possible to move to an garbage collection in smaller steps. For now there're some parts using some "autopointer" class (didn't deeply look into it, but I guess it's overloading the pointer operations and doing some reference counting, which of course isn't generally complete - would keep ring structures forever ;-o). My idea is to add some mark+sweep gc (boem-gc ?) and remove (or somehow disable) all delete operations. Does that work safely, or do I have to cope with certain nasty side effects ? thx -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weigelt@xxxxxxxx mobile: +49 151 27565287 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme ----------------------------------------------------------------------
