After I destroy a fvMesh objec
 

After I destroy a fvMesh object:
mesh.~fvMesh();
or
mesh.fvMesh::~fvMesh();

I could still use mesh variable with no complains from the compiler?! Did I do something wrong?

Thanks.

I would never have thought of using the destructor function this way :-o

Not the destructor function destroys an object, but when an object is destroyed, then the destructor is called.

There are several objects with an empty destructor, so calling it has no effect. But generally its a very, very bad idea.

Depends on your point of view. I suggest doing something right would be to learn C++.
