I&#8217;ve used them in a few projects&#151;more than I&#8217;d want to admit.</p> <p>If you&#8217;re throwing out a carton of bad eggs, you could take the eggs out of the carton and put them in the trash one by one, followed by the empty carton. But it&#8217;s quicker and easier to just toss the whole thing in the trash.</p> <p>Static objects are bad eggs.</p> <p>I suppose the C++ runtime has to toss them all in the trash&#151;call their destructors&#151;because it doesn&#8217;t know if those destructors really need to be run. But if they&#8217;re just going to free memory there ought to be some way to skip all that.</p> https://mg.to/2004/09/10/bad-eggs#comments Programming Fri, 10 Sep 2004 17:12:40 +0000 Michael Geary 41 at https://mg.to
