Detailed Description

template<class Memory>
class utilmm::smart::ref_count::manager< Memory >

Reference counting management.

Parameters

Memory

a model for the memory

This class is a manager for smart::pointer that control the life time policy of memory cells managed by Memory

Note

utilmm::smart::simple_memory is a quite simple and illustrative model for Memory

template<class Memory >

mem_cell utilmm::smart::ref_count::manager< Memory >::assign

(

mem_cell

c

)

Assignment of a cell.

This function is called by utilmm::smart::pointer to indicate to the manager that a given cell is assigned to a new pointer.

Parameters

c	The cell assigned

Postcondition

reference counter of c is incremented by 1

Returns

c ater the operation

template<class Memory >

base_type* utilmm::smart::ref_count::manager< Memory >::get_ptr ( mem_cell  c )

inline

real pointer value.

This function give an access to the real pointer value of a given cell.

Parameters

c

The cell

Returns

the pointer value of the cell

template<class Memory >

mem_cell utilmm::smart::ref_count::manager< Memory >::manage

(

base_type *

ptr

)

Add new pointer in management.

Parameters

ptr	The pointer to manage

This function is called by smart::pointer when this one wants to add a new pointer to the manager management.

Returns

The cell corresponding to this pointer.

template<class Memory >

bool utilmm::smart::ref_count::manager< Memory >::null ( mem_cell  c )

inline

Check if null.

Check if a given cell points to nothing

Parameters

c	The cell to check

Return values

true	if c is null
false	else

template<class Memory >

void utilmm::smart::ref_count::manager< Memory >::release

(

mem_cell

c

)

Unassignement of a cell.

This function is called by utilmm::smart::pointer to indicate that a pointer has stopped to used a given cell.

Parameters

c	The cell released

Postcondition

The counter for c is decrmented by 1 and, if this counter has reached the 0 value the cell is detroyed.
