Re: ReaperQueue

Marcus and Ken,

Thanks,
the first one was a typo, I have > in the code.
(Sorry, I should have checked the message before posting).

the documentation for deleteAll says that members are dropped
as well.  So I do not need the line
         [deadBug drop];
within the while loop, correct?

I can just have 
     [reaperQueue deleteAll];
after the while loop.
 Do I need the following also?
    [index drop];
