[JASS] Do I have to null parameters?

[Teelo]

*grumble* stupid lack of garbage collector language...

So do I have to null parameters passed to a function?

Eg:

function blah takes unit a, player b, integer c, group d returns boolean
    local unit e

    set a = null
    set b = null
    set d = null
    set e = null
    return maybe
endfunction

You never have to null parameters. And you cant set an integer to null (you don't have to clean up non-handle types anyway).

I never did null the integer variable in that chunk of code

Anyway thanks, just wasn't sure.

You dont have to null parameter.
What leaks and what doesn't? - Wc3campaigns
Nullify Parameters? - Wc3campaigns
You also dont have to null integer.
And, yeah, you dont even have to null all handles...

This has nothing to do with garbage collection. It has to do with Blizzard being lazy.
