Detailed Description

template<class T>
class OFauto_ptr< T >

a simple class which makes sure a pointer is deleted once it goes out of scope.

This class does NOT do reference counting! This is a reimplementation of std::auto_ptr.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class T>

OFauto_ptr< T >::OFauto_ptr

(

T *

p = NULL

)

[inline, explicit]

constructs a OFauto_ptr from the given pointer.

You must not call delete on a pointer that is managed by OFauto_ptr!

Parameters:

p	the pointer

template<class T>

OFauto_ptr< T >::OFauto_ptr

(

OFauto_ptr< T > &

other

)

[inline]

constructs a OFauto_ptr from another OFauto_ptr.

The other OFauto_ptr will be invalidated. This means he will point to NULL from now on!

Parameters:

other

the OFauto_ptr to get the pointer from.

template<class T>

OFauto_ptr< T >::OFauto_ptr

(

OFauto_ptr_ref< T >

other

)

[inline]

constructs a OFauto_ptr from an OFauto_ptr_ref.

Parameters:

other

the OFauto_ptr_ref to get the pointer from.

template<class T>

OFauto_ptr< T >::~OFauto_ptr

(

)

[inline]

destructor.

Destroys the pointer that is managed by this instance, if there is any.

Member Function Documentation

template<class T>

T* OFauto_ptr< T >::get

(

)

const [inline]

get the pointer that is managed by this class

Returns:

the pointer

template<class T>

OFauto_ptr< T >::operator OFauto_ptr_ref< T >

(

)

[inline]

this is used automatically by the compiler, don't call directly

Returns:

an OFauto_ptr_ref that stores this object's pointer

template<class T>

T& OFauto_ptr< T >::operator*

(

)

const [inline]

dereference the pointer that is managed by this class

Returns:

the reference

template<class T>

T* OFauto_ptr< T >::operator->

(

)

const [inline]

get the pointer that is managed by this class

Returns:

the pointer

template<class T>

OFauto_ptr& OFauto_ptr< T >::operator=

(

OFauto_ptr< T > &

other

)

[inline]

assigns the other pointer to this OFauto_ptr

Parameters:

other

other OFauto_ptr which will be invalidated

Returns:

reference to this object

template<class T>

OFauto_ptr& OFauto_ptr< T >::operator=

(

OFauto_ptr_ref< T >

other

)

[inline]

assigns the other pointer to this OFauto_ptr

Parameters:

other

other OFauto_ptr_ref

Returns:

reference to this object

template<class T>

T* OFauto_ptr< T >::release

(

)

[inline]

release the pointer that is managed by this class.

You are now responsible for destroying that pointer yourself!

Returns:

the pointer

template<class T>

void OFauto_ptr< T >::reset

(

T *

p = NULL

)

[inline]

assign another pointer to this OFauto_ptr, possibly deleting our current pointer

Parameters:

p	the new pointer
