[fpc-devel] Suggestion: reference counted objects

[Dmitry Boyarintsev]

That's exactly what I wanted to confirm - no name - for an anonymous
function.

I'm sure eventually the development society, will discourage the use of
anonymous functions (just like unnamed constants are considered to be a bad
pattern). Thus the only thing that would remain welcomed are closures -
copying the execution context for further invoke of a function.

thanks,
Dmitry
