Hi,

>>
The code that creates and assigns an object to a property in a class definition is invalid in VFP9. It generates error "Statement is not valid in a class definition". It has to be changed to
DEFINE CLASS c1 AS CUSTOM
  o = Null
  PROCEDURE Init
    This.o = CREATEOBJECT("c2")
  PROCEDURE Destroy
    This.o = Null
ENDDEFINE
>>

I knew the syntax I used was 'sus' but I was surprised at the result. BTW, why bother with the 'This.o=Null' - when wouldn't o go out of scope when c1 is destroyed anyway ?

Also I see that although VFP9 (at least in the beta) flags up the error it only does so AFTER creating c2 and is inconsistent in subsequently releasing it.

Regards,
Viv
