That's interesting and nice. Can I assume the same is valid for dyn
arrays in a procedure or function context?
Normal vars do "behave" that way ...
program x;
procedure a;
var
s: array of string;
begin
SetLength(s, count);
s[0] := 'a string';
... do something ...
end; { no freeing of the array strings needed? }
