Detailed Description

template<class T>
class wxObjectDataPtr< T >

This is an helper template class primarily written to avoid memory leaks because of missing calls to wxRefCounter::DecRef() and wxObjectRefData::DecRef().

Despite the name this template can actually be used as a smart pointer for any class implementing the reference counting interface which only consists of the two methods T::IncRef() and T::DecRef().

The difference to wxSharedPtr<T> is that wxObjectDataPtr<T> relies on the reference counting to be in the class pointed to, where instead wxSharedPtr<T> implements the reference counting itself.

Below is an example illustrating how to implement reference counted data using wxRefCounter and wxObjectDataPtr<T> with copy-on-write semantics.

例

    class MyCarRefData: public wxRefCounter
    {
    public:
        MyCarRefData( int price = 0 ) : m_price(price) { }
        MyCarRefData( const MyCarRefData& data ) : m_price(data.m_price) { }

        void SetPrice( int price )  { m_price = price; }
        int GetPrice() const        { return m_price; }

    protected:
        int m_price;
    };

    class MyCar
    {
    public:
        // initializes this MyCar assigning to the
        // internal data pointer a new instance of MyCarRefData
        MyCar( int price = 0 ) : m_data( new MyCarRefData(price) )
        {
        }

        MyCar& operator =( const MyCar& tocopy )
        {
            // shallow copy: this is just a fast copy of pointers; the real
            // memory-consuming data which typically is stored inside
            // MyCarRefData is not copied here!
            m_data = tocopy.m_data;
            return *this;
        }

        bool operator == ( const MyCar& other ) const
        {
            if (m_data.get() == other.m_data.get())
                return true; // this instance and the 'other' one share the
                             // same MyCarRefData data...

            return (m_data.GetPrice() == other.m_data.GetPrice());
        }

        void SetPrice( int price )
        {
            // make sure changes to this class do not affect other instances
            // currently sharing our same refcounted data:
            UnShare();

            m_data->SetPrice( price );
        }

        int GetPrice() const
        {
           return m_data->GetPrice();
        }

        wxObjectDataPtr<MyCarRefData> m_data;

    protected:
        void UnShare()
        {
            if (m_data->GetRefCount() == 1)
                return;

            m_data.reset( new MyCarRefData( *m_data ) );
        }
    };

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class T >

wxObjectDataPtr< T >::wxObjectDataPtr

(

T *

ptr = NULL

)

Constructor.

ptr is a pointer to the reference counted object to which this class points. If ptr is not NULL T::IncRef() will be called on the object.

template<class T >

wxObjectDataPtr< T >::wxObjectDataPtr

(

const wxObjectDataPtr< T > &

tocopy

)

This copy constructor increases the count of the reference counted object to which tocopy points and then this class will point to, as well.

template<class T >

wxObjectDataPtr< T >::~wxObjectDataPtr

(

)

Decreases the reference count of the object to which this class points.

---

Member Function Documentation

template<class T >

T* wxObjectDataPtr< T >::get

(

)

const

Gets a pointer to the reference counted object to which this class points.

template<class T >

wxObjectDataPtr< T >::operator unspecified_bool_type

(

)

const

Conversion to a boolean expression (in a variant which is not convertable to anything but a boolean expression).

If this class contains a valid pointer it will return true, if it contains a NULL pointer it will return false.

template<class T >

T& wxObjectDataPtr< T >::operator*

(

)

const

Returns a reference to the object.

If the internal pointer is NULL this method will cause an assert in debug mode.

template<class T >

T* wxObjectDataPtr< T >::operator->

(

)

const

Returns a pointer to the reference counted object to which this class points.

If this the internal pointer is NULL, this method will assert in debug mode.

template<class T >

wxObjectDataPtr<T>& wxObjectDataPtr< T >::operator=

(

const wxObjectDataPtr< T > &

tocopy

)

Assignment operator.

template<class T >

wxObjectDataPtr<T>& wxObjectDataPtr< T >::operator=

(

T *

ptr

)

Assignment operator.

template<class T >

void wxObjectDataPtr< T >::reset

(

T *

ptr

)

Reset this class to ptr which points to a reference counted object and calls T::DecRef() on the previously owned object.
