In some paper I read that in Oberon, all pointer variables are initialised to NIL. Now I would like to know if this means that also pointer fields in dynamically (with NEW) allocated records or in static records are initialised to NIL. In short are pointers always either NIL or valid pointers and not garbage pointers. May it vary between implementations? Thanks for your time. jpussi@cs.joensuu.fi
