These add scope to the objects inside the {} e.g { FOO thing; } //<-- thing's dtor is basically called here so if you remove the scoping braces then the objects get destroyed later on. If the initial developer stuck them in, then there's almost certainly a very good reason the objects have to be destroyed at the explicit end of scope. e.g. in your example xObjStg is the likely special thing that must be destroyed right at the } and not continue to live to the end of the prior enclosing if statement. Worth going ahead and filing that cppcheck bug, and leave the .cxx alone :-) C. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
