st: Mata: dropping structures from memory

["Zurab Sajaia" <zsajaia@hotmail.com>]

Hi everyone,

I have a recursive problem involving linked list of structures in Mata, but 
after some number of chains (number is not fixed, that's why I decided to 
use list instead of a matrix) I don't need an earlier members of the list 
and they can be dropped to free some memory. If I don't drop them, my list 
is getting too long and even makes Stata to crash.

I was wondering if there was some way of clearing structures like other 
objects in Stata.

Thanks in advance,
Zurab
