- Memo Subject:Re> Pseudo Objects
- Keith, Curtis, et al:
-
- The pseudo object idea is a great one, which I considered just a little too
- late to do anything about in Informed Designer. I plan to try it myself soon.
-
- Apart from the problems Keith mentioned, there is quite a lot of object
- discipline going around when you compile a debug version. In particular,
- anything that test if an object is a good handle will fail.
-
- example: %_OBCHK calls FailNonObject, which calls IsObject, which calls
- IsHandle, which will surely fail.
-
- If you fix IsObject, that should take care of most of them.
-
- I would say this will help things A LOT!! Memory congestion is a big problem,
- as anyone who has come close to running out can attest. Once the memory
- manager starts trying to compact several thousands of handles, performance
- goes in the dumper.
-
- Good luck!
