Detailed Description

Pointer to reference counted objects. Pointer to reference count managed objects.

This is a non-template form of a reference count smart pointer, and so uses common code. This can be subclassed to return explicit object types.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ost::RefPointer::RefPointer  )  [inline]
 

Create an unattached pointer.

ost::RefPointer::RefPointer RefObject obj  ) 
 

Create a pointer attached to a reference counted object.

Object being referenced.

ost::RefPointer::RefPointer const RefPointer ptr  ) 
 

A copy constructor.

Pointer being copied.

Member Function Documentation

void ost::RefPointer::detach void   )  [protected]
 

Detach current object, for example, when changing pointer.

virtual void ost::RefPointer::enterLock void   )  [protected, virtual]
 

Patch point for mutex in derived class.

This may often be a single static mutex shared by a managed type.

void* ost::RefPointer::getObject void   )  const
 

virtual void ost::RefPointer::leaveLock void   )  [protected, virtual]
 

Patch point for a mutex in derived class.

This may often be a single static mutex shared by a managed type.

void* ost::RefPointer::operator *  )  const [inline]
 

bool ost::RefPointer::operator!  )  const
 

void* ost::RefPointer::operator->  )  const [inline]
 

RefPointer& ost::RefPointer::operator= const RefObject ref  )
