yes.
As I understand it this function is defined in object_.d which is always
imported by default and can be called on an (associative) array through
a
mechanism called "universal function call", that matches the part before
the dot with the first parameter of the function. This only works for
arrays. So I believe it is a free function (to invalidate/finalize a
variable) and not a property of an array at all.
Thanks for clarification.
So now my question and task changes.
Is there a way to reuse previous memory occupied by AA, when I need to
change all of it element?
E.g. for dynamic arrays it's possible to make:
dyn_arr.length = 0;
assumeSafeAppend(dyn_arr);
fill_new_values(dyn_arr);
No way I heard of. You could delete the entries one by one. :D
I guess setting all references to null is the easiest way to 'clear' an AA.
