ref my previous email,
anyway there are other aspects and side effects due to the circular
refs, and one this is a memory issue, GC is now almost clever to
detect that's ObjectB reference is hold by a previous ObjectA ref to
Object0 our first reference, but it wasn't true at the beginning, and
I am pretty sure there are still some undiscovered effects
by adopting a proper design you will avoid this, here you can see a
bunch of unsolvable requests due to this kind of mistake, sure people
find patch on patch on patch and finish with a ton of lines to try to
correct the reasons,
see my previous comment on symptoms and consequences
Cheers!
