I had a distinct memory of someone talking about the same thing. You used the constant flag and mentioned the problem with it, and I remember when I rediscovered the same problem that I had a sense of vicarious deja vu. If that's possible. I just assumed that whatever it was, it had already been committed. The constant flag seems rather important. I still think activating the refcount bits would be the best approach for now, possibly later moving to an additional container in the root set. (P32 anyone?) Wow, you've got a couple of major patches floating around that are getting ignored. I don't feel so bad now. :-)Thread Previous | Thread Next
