I have been using what was in 46306. In no way am I claiming any credit for that work. So I don't misrepresent anyone, please see the the above 2 threads.
Based on what I learned 46306, I followed up with
https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,55154.0.html and made
https://github.com/bogen85/fpc-deferThe mechanisms used in fpc-defer is by no means and original ideas by me, and in no way am I claiming that that they are.
That all being said, and because of smart pointer questions being asked in here
https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,62148.0.html, I was wondering if there was any effort to the work done by Thaddy and Aserge (and others, see the 46306 topic/thread) was in any planned to be formalized in an upcoming FPC FCL?
I'm calling this take #2, because what the discussion I started in 62163 was misunderstood and led to some misunderstandings.
