Fortunately, you can easily supress the messages "Variable "$1" of a managed type does not seem to be initialized" and keep it for non-managed types only.
BTW, why it's there twice - as a Hint and as a Warning? When I got hint and when I got warning?

Object Pascal programmers should get rid of their "component fetish" especially with the non-visuals.

I visited him in 2020 (it was after this visit that I bought glasses). This specialist then gave me medical advice: don't worry about people who haven't consulted their geriatric specialist :)

A page like this in the FPC documentation would be useful. Improving the documentation would greatly help people who are just starting to program in Pascal and Object Pascal using PFC (whether or not they have programmed anything before). I myself once had the understanding of how these subroutines work. Among other things, such trifles significantly affect the popularity of the language. And that's what we care about.

Then please report an issue for the documentation. It doesn't help if you say that things should be improved, the right people need to know about something being amiss.

Suggestion has been sent: A proposal to clarify the documentation of the procedures: Initialize and Finalize.

This is good news for the participants of this forum. New users of Pascal who will ask in this forum, will need help from experienced programmers :D
