[xmlvm-users] CGRect & memory issues

[Panayotis K. <pan...@pa...>]

I have a question, regarding memory issues and CGRect (and Obj-C backend).
It seems that structs are a bit more complicated than usual.


Let's consider the following Java code segment:

CGRect myrect = new CGRect(0,0,0,0);
// under Obj-C a CGPoint and CGSize will be allocated

myrect.size = new CGSize(0,0);
// under Obj-C a new CGSize will be applied to the myrect object, 
// but the "old" CGSize object is never deallocated

if I did
myrect.size = null;
myrect.size = new CGSize(0,0);
then the memory will be properly freed


Any ideas how to get rid of this problem (apart from changing code writing style?)
