A side related question. I wonder, when you have more instance variable referencing the same object, does it make more difficult to get unused object garbage collected? In DrGeo I *fell* I have this kind of problem with object referenced in other object and vis-versa, then never garbage collected. Or did I miss something?
I'm unsure it answers your question but the garbage collector should be able to detect cycles of unused objects and delete them. -- Damien Cassou Peter von der Ahé: «I'm beginning to see why Gilad wished us good luck». (http://blogs.sun.com/ahe/entry/override_snafu)
