Hello Pascal!

Replying to a message of Pascal Schmidt to Roger Scudder:

 PS> Hi Roger! :-)

 RS>> Freeing a structure should be nothing more than one line...
 RS>> free(PointerToMyStructure);
 PS> Unless the structure contains malloc'd pointers itself, in which case
 PS> those have to be freed first. Additional fun if the structures
 PS> pointed to by embedded pointers can contain further pointers... :)

 PS> I usually code functions called destroy_foo() for each structure foo
 PS> that has embedded pointers. That hides the complexety and code
 PS> needing to destroy a variable temp of type foo does indeed only have
 PS> to do

 PS>     destroy_foo(temp);

Welcome to C++.  ;-)
