can an object 2 destroy itself?
Hi there. It's me pililowski again.
I'm tryin' 2 do an object able 2 destroy itself at its OnClick event. When i free the object in this event an ugly crappy access violation happens.
"...
procedure TShadowBtn.Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
Free;
inherited Click;
end;
..."
My question is: Is it possible 2 do this with no errors? I mean if is it possible 2 make an object able to destroy itself by itself (with no help from other objects)?
If i find the way i'll make u know. Till then hope your answers. C ya!

well, first, the button is part of the object ??
so i am guessing u want to destroy a component.
my question : why destroy an object from one of it's member?
it would probably be best to destroy the object from another button, who is not part of the object, or at least if thats not possible, just hide the object from the form, and it will be destoyed when the form closses.
