Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SmartPtr (    )  [inline]

build Smart-NULL-Ptr. Definition at line 77 of file smartptr.h.

SmartPtr (  T *    p )  [inline]

build normal SmartPtr. By passing an object to a SmartPtr you loose the responsibility for the object. That means : Never free an object which was passed to a SmartPtr! The object will be destroyed, when the last SmartPtr (pointing to that object) gets destroyed. Parameters: p  Pointer to any dynamically allocated object Definition at line 87 of file smartptr.h.

~SmartPtr (    )  [inline]

destroy SmartPtr. object will not be destroyed as long as any other SmartPtr points to it Definition at line 96 of file smartptr.h.

SmartPtr (  const SmartPtr< T > &    other )  [inline]

Definition at line 98 of file smartptr.h.

SmartPtr<T>& operator= (  const SmartPtr< T > &    other )  [inline]

Definition at line 102 of file smartptr.h.

T* operator-> (    )  [inline]

Definition at line 109 of file smartptr.h.

const T* operator-> (    )  const [inline]

Definition at line 110 of file smartptr.h.

T& operator * (    )  [inline]

Definition at line 112 of file smartptr.h.

const T& operator * (    )  const [inline]

Definition at line 113 of file smartptr.h.

bool Null (    )  const [inline]

test if SmartPtr is 0 Definition at line 116 of file smartptr.h.

void SetNull (    )  [inline]

set SmartPtr to 0 Definition at line 119 of file smartptr.h.

SmartPtr<T> deep_copy (    )  const [inline]

create a deep copy of the object pointed to by the smart pointer. Afterwards there exist two equal copies of the object. Returns: SmartPtr to the new copy. Definition at line 127 of file smartptr.h.

bool sameObject (  const SmartPtr< T > &    other )  const [inline]

test if two SmartPtrs point to the same object (this is used for operators == and !=). if you like to compare the objects themselves use (*smart_ptr1 == *smart_ptr2) Returns: true if the SmartPtrs point to the same object Definition at line 137 of file smartptr.h. Referenced by rs::operator!=(), and rs::operator==().
