Any Haxe GC tips?

Question

Recently I am learning Haxe for Flash, and I have some ActionScript 3 experience.

I notice there is a delete operation in AS3, Is there something like delete in Haxe? Is the delete about GC? Are there any tips for Haxe newbies about memory management?

Answer 1

Marcus already explained what the delete operator does. For use in Haxe please refer to this page.

Thus the Haxe equivalent of delete foo.b is untyped __delete__(foo, "b"). In case you intend to use it a lot, I suggest you put that into a function ;)
