Changing process ID of TRefTable?

Hi,

when using a TRefArray I realized that the process ID can only be set in the constructor, i.e. the only way of changing the process ID is another call to the constructor. Is there a reason why the process ID cannot be changed by a method?

I am aware that that change holds for all references in the array. But let's say I have a TRefArray member in a class which is stored in a TClonesArray and I would like to have references to objects from different processes (all refs from one array from the same process, of course). Then I would like to change the process of the TRefArray for every object in the TClonesArray. At the moment the only way of doing this seems to be to have a TRefArray* member and create it with the correct process ID. However, that means that the TClonesArray has to call the destructors for the containing objects, instead of a simple clear.

Am I overlooking something?

Cheers,
