I''m making a linked list and now I''m implementing methods to remove elements from the list. So, is it safe to say delete this in a method of a class or do I have to do it outside the class. In this case, delete this would be last call of a method. I haven''t actually tried this yet, but my common sense says no, but perhaps there is a neat solution to achieve this.. Comments, ideas, suggestions?

However, I''ve yet to find a situation where I couldn''t delete the object some other way--such as from the previous object in the list. Still, it might be useful.
