But it doesn't force you to do anything of the sort. If you know Delphi well
enough, all you do is create and free your objects and that is pretty easy.
Well written Delphi should not need to use malloc etc. e.g.
myObj = Obj.create();
try
// Do stuff with myObj here
finally
myObj.free;
end;
See, not a single malloc in sight!
Delphi also deals with pointers in a similar way to Java if you let it.
Although if you want to you can still write C++ pointer style code it is
generally considered nasty stuff. C++ was and is all pointers, Java takes
the pain away. Delphi gives you the choice :-) Anyway, this is all getting a
tad OT now so I'll leave it there :-)
