procedure Finalize(var T: TAnyType; ACount: SizeInt);
Description
Finalize is a compiler intrinsic: it cleans up (finalizes) a memory area T for any kind of managed variable. Finalizing means decreasing reference counts where necessary and generally zeroing out the memory area. It performs the opposite operation of initialize .
The optional ACount parameter can be used to finalize an array of values.
For examples, see initialize .
