Remove support for pointer-members! #103

Closed wc-duck closed 5 years ago

wc-duck commented 5 years ago

Members with the type "some_type*" has been supported by dl since day one but during all these years I have never had a case where I wanted/needed to use it. IMHO all such cases could just as well be handled by an array + indices userside. The motivation to remove them then would be that it removes quite a bit of code and complexity.

This issue is mostly here as a "think about this"/"gather input".

Nooooo! We use pointer types! We use it regularly.
