That > surely is a good idea. Let me rework the patch! I am not that smart (i.e. avoid copy constructor it might be, I don't know...) I am lousy in c++. I attempter to mean http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_Acquisition_Is_Initialization in a sense that when variable is introduced it is also initialized to useful value (so that no-one accidentally add code between introduction and initialization). Anyway, if you rework the patch then we can vote which version to apply (yeah, sure >;) > -- > Vlad Tomi
