A key characteristic of mm_ptr is its real-time behavior and could consequently be renamed to rt_ptr or real_ptr for example.
On the other hand if garbage collection was to be implemented I'm sure gc_ptr would fit better than mm_ptr.
Thanks, -Phil
If I understood correctly, it's a pointer that 1) counts references from the stack or data segment only 2) auto-unites different "sets" So maybe something along the line of "heap_set_ptr" covers its functionality. I'm curious about the union behaviour: couldn't this be causing a huge delay for deallocation? Can it be turned off? Cheers, Rutger
