Hello,
What is the safest (no memory corruption etc...) way to use format string, and by using '%P' pass a class memory address ?
Does casting to Pointer good, or is it unsafe ?
Thanks,
Ido

As Format does not support objects being provided to it you MUST even cast to Pointer if you want it printed. :)
And as classes instances are implicit pointers there is no problem...
