Juhuu! ...eehm... Yeah!

Now that beta 3 is upon us I've been having a real crack at embedding lists/maps within structures. I've nested them 3 deep (structure contains a map of structures each of which contains a list of structures, each of which...)

Seems pretty solid right now. ForEach worked fine with the various levels.

In a word, absolutely bloody awesome! Okay, that was 3 words, but 1 simply wasn't enough. There is some serious work there behind the scenes by the compiler to get all of this working!

Thanks Fred/Timo.

absolutely bloody awesome!

I couldn't have said it better.
Thanks a lot, Fred and Timo, for the new powerful possibilities for creating trees and similar data structures!

It worth noting than you can call FreeArray(), FreeList(), FreeMap(), or even ClearStructure() right after the structure creation if you want the behaviour "structure not initialized by default". The NewList, Dim and NewMap() will have to be called on demand.

Added a note to the post as well.
