What I mean is I guess that pattern has affected my mindset in the way I think about putting a structure at the right side of an assignment operator :) I am not so much into C/C++, and I suppose the underlying mechanisms would have been clearer if I knew those languages. > I hope it's a bit clearer now. So, in short: do not use a Struct ever, unless you are talking to a C shared-library through the Extern keyword, because the underlying mechanisms are slower, and also as I read in the wiki, they occupy more memory. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
