ACE_Refcounted_Auto_Ptr< X, ACE_LOCK > Class Template Reference

This class implements support for a reference counted auto_ptr. Assigning or copying instances of an ACE_Refcounted_Auto_Ptr will automatically increment the reference count. When the last instance that references a ACE_Refcounted_Auto_Ptr instance is destroyed or overwritten, it will invoke delete on its underlying pointer. More...

Detailed Description

template<class X, class ACE_LOCK>
class ACE_Refcounted_Auto_Ptr< X, ACE_LOCK >

This class implements support for a reference counted auto_ptr. Assigning or copying instances of an ACE_Refcounted_Auto_Ptr will automatically increment the reference count. When the last instance that references a ACE_Refcounted_Auto_Ptr instance is destroyed or overwritten, it will invoke delete on its underlying pointer.

The ACE_Refcounted_Auto_Ptr works by maintaining a reference to a separate representation object, ACE_Refcounted_Auto_Ptr_Rep. That separate representation object contains the reference count and the actual pointer value.

Copy constructor binds the new ACE_Refcounted_Auto_Ptr to the representation object referenced by r. An ACE_Refcounted_Auto_Ptr_Rep is created if necessary.

ACE_BEGIN_VERSIONED_NAMESPACE_DECL ACE_Refcounted_Auto_Ptr< X, ACE_LOCK >::~ACE_Refcounted_Auto_Ptr (  void   )  [virtual]
 

Destructor. Releases the reference to the underlying representation. If the release of that reference causes its reference count to reach 0, the representation object will also be destroyed.
