As long as you're sure no circular references exist, shared_ptr wuold be fine. But the point is if we GEOS needs to directly map JTS algorithms, they are based on a conservativ garbage collector. GCJ uses the bohem one, and is very nice. Ever tried to build JTS natively ? --strk; _______________________________________________ geos-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/geos-devel
