243 These macros are ugly (especially if you look in the sources ;-), but they

245 <BR>
246 <BR>
247 Range checking is performed in debug build for both arrays and lists. Type
248 checking is done at compile-time. Warning: arrays <I>never</I> shrink, they
249 only grow, so loading 10 millions in an array only to delete them 2 lines
250 below is <I>not</I> recommended. However, it does free memory when it's
251 destroyed, so if you destroy array also, it's ok.

268 This macro generates a new list class which owns the objects it contains,
269 i.e. it will delete them when it is destroyed. An element is of type T*,
270 but arguments of type T& are taken (see below!) and T& is returned.
271 <BR>
272 Don't use this for simple types such as "int" or "long"!
273 You _may_ use it for "double" but it's awfully inefficient.
274 <BR>
275 <BR>
276 Note on Add/Insert functions:
277 <BR>
278 1) function(T*) gives the object to the list, i.e. it will delete the
279 object when it's removed or in the list's dtor
280 <BR>
281 2) function(T&) will create a copy of the object and work with it
282 <BR>
283 <BR>
284 Also:
285 <BR>
286 1) Remove() will delete the object after removing it from the list
287 <BR>
288 2) Detach() just removes the object from the list (returning pointer to it)
289 <BR>
290 <BR>
291 NB1: Base type T should have an accessible copy ctor if Add(T&) is used,
292 <BR>
293 NB2: Never ever cast a list to it's base type: as dtor is <B>not</B> virtual
294 it will provoke memory leaks
