	Destructor (computer science) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In object-oriented programming, a destructor is a method which is automatically invoked when the object is destroyed.
		The use of destructors is key to the concept of RAII.
		A destructor that returns a value can be used to obtain a representation of an object of a class.

		You should expect there to be almost exactly the same number of constructor and destructor calls.
		Destructors are called in EXACTLY the reverse order that the constructors were called in to create the thing being destroyed.
		If you up-cast to a "higher" type, then only the destructor of that higher type, and higher,will be called.

	Friedrich_Nietzsche
		The religious worldview had already suffered a number of challenges from contrary perspectives grounded in philosophical skepticism, modern science (heliocentrism superseding geocentrism, evolution superseding creationism), and internal disputes (Reformation).
		Nietzsche first encountered the idea in the works of Heinrich Heine, who speculated that there would one day be a person born with the same thought processes as himself, and that the same was true of every other person on the planet.
		As described by Nietzsche, the eternal return is more than merely an intellectual concept or challenge, it is akin to a koan, or a psychological device that occupies one's entire consciousness stimulating a transformation of consciousness known as metanoia.

		EVERY C++ variable is created with a constructor call, and destroyed with a destructor call.
		When constructing a class object that uses inheritance, all inherited class are constructed before the derived class constructor is executed.
		The assignment operator returns an instance of A, which goes out of scope instantly, and the destruction of this temporary instance generates this call to the A destructor.

	C#: Should CS 1 Switch
		This talk looks at how Computer Science departments pick programming languages for their introductory courses (CS1 and CS2), and why there is a strong possibility that a new consensus could be C#.
		This paper starts with academic computer science in the 60’s largely using Algol 60 and traces how languages were adopted in different eras concluding with the current situation where Java dominates.
		Most computer science departments were off-shoots of mathematics or engineering departments, which concentrated on scientific programming.

	Semantics of trashed (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		I've been thinking about the semantics of destructors in Larch/C++ and would like your opinions---especially if you are involved in Larch/C. Consider the Larch/C++ specification of the destructor for the class Stack.
		The programmer's responsibility in implementing the destructor is to deallocate any contained objects (by deleting them).
		The other thing you want to say with a destructor is that contained objects are deallocated.

	Class Constructors and Destructors (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The destructor for an object is called when that object goes "out of scope," that is, when it no longer exists for the program.
		The purpose of the destructor is the opposite of the constructor: it deallocates the memory space which was allocated by the constructor and by any operations on the object.
		In general, it is a good idea to explicitly declare the destructor, even if the body of the implementation code is empty, thereby defaulting to the default destructor.

		Various implementations of the LCOM metric, regarding inheritance and use of the constructor and destructor in the calculation are possible.
		The use of this methodology removes a source of student confusion (how did they come up with that circuit in the first place?) and allows the student to practice certain standard flip flop techniques before the student is required to use those techniques in a more general sequential circuit analysis.

		If the Player and Room objects are, the destructor will be invoked more than once because of all the copying that goes on, which will create a core dump on the second attempt.
		No. Alas, when the derived class destructor is run, it always calls the base class destructor.
		So you must make the base class desrtuctor plain virtual and implement the destructor, but leave the body blank in the base class destructor.

		In Eiffel, you can't tell whether a data member is an actual piece of data or a computation, because the name of the data member is hidden behind accessor (Get/Set) functions of the same name.
		Destructors are for the most part unnecessary with good garbage collection in place.
		Face it, if elegance and efficiency were the prime considerations for choosing a language computer science probably should have stopped forty years ago when Lisp first came out.

	Destroying things using C++ (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Is there a way to override the base class destructor's execution in the derived class' destructor in case the derived class needs to handle a member's deletion differently?
		For example, instead of: ~base_class(); do this: virtual ~base_class(); Now, within the derived class, you should be able to do this: ~base_class(); If you do not "overload" ~base_class() within the derived class, then the original destructor will be invoked when an instance of the class goes out of scope.

		You will also notice it's not necessary to implement copy constructors, assignment operators, nor destructors since the iterator classes do not perform any deep copies.
		By necessary, this means the class would behave incorrectly (especially, if, say, only the destructor were defined).

		This text is intended for computer science and computer engineering students in their sophomore year of study.
		It is assumed that students have completed a basic computer science course and have learned a high-level programming language like Pascal, C, C++, or Java.
		The goals of such a programming course are to make sure that computer science students are exposed to different programming paradigms and language mechanisms, and obtain sufficient programming skills and experiences in different programming languages, so that they can quickly use these or similar languages in other courses.

		Derived Class Destructors Here is an example of a base class which has a pointer data member.
		When a derived class's destructor is called, the base class's destructor is implicitly called before any instructions in the derived class's destructor are executed.
		Therefore, a derived class destructor should only deal with data members which are explicitly defined in its class, instead of any inherited members.

		While not needed in Assignment 4, a robust and generally usable tree class would have the usual set of three pieces of any class involving dynamically allocated memory: a copy constructor, an assignment operator, and a destructor.
		As usual, once we have an assignment operator, the copy constructor is easy to write: initialize the object, then assign to it.
		operator will first call your destructor, then go ahead with the usual deletion of dynamically allocated memory.
