    TObject.Free

    Check for Nil and call destructor.

    Declaration

    Source position: objpash.inc line 285

    public 
procedure TObject.Free;

    Description

    Free will check the Self pointer and calls Destroy if it is different from Nil. This is a safer method than calling Destroy directly. If a reference to the object must be reset as well (a recommended technique), then the function FreeAndNil should be called.

    Errors

    None.
