Description

Base class for smart pointers

Defines functions which are common for all smart Ptr's (comparsions etc).

PtrBase construct/copy/destruct

  1. __init__()

    Construct null pointer.


  2. __init__(T * p)

    Construct from a dumb pointer.


PtrBase public member functions

  1. T * pointer() const

    Returns raw pointer to the object.


  2. T * getPtr() const


  3. T * get() const


  4. T * release()

    Extract pointer to the kept object and release it.


  5. T * operator->() const

    Dereference operator ->


  6. T & operator*() const

    Dereference operator *.


  7. bool isNull() const

    Check whether owned pointer is NULL.


  8. bool operator!() const

    Synonymous to isNull().


  9. operator bool() const

    Checks if pointer is non-NULL.


  10. bool operator<(const PtrBase & rhs) const

    Checks that the current pointer is less than rhs.


  11. bool operator<(const T * rhs) const

    Checks that the current pointer is less than rhs.


  12. bool operator>(const PtrBase & rhs) const

    Checks that the current pointer is greater than rhs.


  13. bool operator>(const T * rhs) const

    Checks that the current pointer is greater than rhs.


  14. bool operator<=(const PtrBase & rhs) const

    Checks that the current pointer is less or equal than rhs.


  15. bool operator<=(const T * rhs) const

    Checks that the current pointer is less or equal than rhs.


  16. bool operator>=(const PtrBase & rhs) const

    Checks that the current pointer is greater or equal than rhs.


  17. bool operator>=(const T * rhs) const

    Checks that the current pointer is greater or equal than rhs.
