Form.Release + NIL

Question

if Form.Release is called after using the form, it will free all related memory but not set the form variable to nil.

if not assigned (Form1) then
  begin
    Ap         


        

Answer 1

In Delphi Win32, the appropriate way to free objects is to call

FreeAndNil(Form1)

This does both jobs in a single call.

However, I have a sneaking feeling there's more to your question than meets the eye. Are you using Delphi for .NET - and if so, which version?
