Hello Andrei,
Well if we get into details we'll figure that things must be quite
different for different memory management models. For example Object
in ref-counted mode is not a class anymore, it's a struct. So now
there's going to be two parts in an app: those in which Object is a
class, and those in which Object is a struct. Reconciling those would
be a tall order.
I think we *are* taking about different things because that argument
doesn't hold for the -nogc I'm thinking of, ref counted objects are
still GCed objects, allocating them would also be disallows in a module
compiled under -nogc.
Yah, but say the module is calling a function in another module. Could
that function allocate stuff? Then who's releasing it? Could that
function return allocated stuff into the -nogc module? Then who's
releasing that guy?
