Detailed Description

template<class T>
class rw::core::Ptr< T >

Ptr stores a pointer and optionally takes ownership of the value.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Ptr() [1/3]

Ptr ( T *  ptr)
inline

Do not take ownership of ptr.

ptr can be null.

The constructor is implicit on purpose.

◆ Ptr() [2/3]

Ptr ( cpp_shared_ptr  ptr)
inline

Take ownership of ptr.

ptr can be null.

The constructor is implicit on purpose.

◆ Ptr() [3/3]

Ptr ( Ptr< S > const &  p,
typename std::enable_if< std::is_base_of< T, S >::value >::type *  = 0 
)
inline

Construct smart pointer from other smart pointer.

Parameters
pthe other (compatible) smart pointer.

Member Function Documentation

◆ cast() [1/2]

Ptr<S> cast ( )
inline

Cast the smart pointer to a different type.

Returns
smart pointer that can be null if cast was not possible.

◆ cast() [2/2]

Ptr<S> cast ( ) const
inline

Cast the smart pointer to a different type.

Returns
smart pointer that can be null if cast was not possible.

◆ cptr()

Ptr<const T> cptr ( ) const
inline

Get const Pointer.

Returns
a copy in the form of Ptr<const T>;

◆ isNull()

bool isNull ( ) const
inline

checks if the pointer is null

Returns
Returns true if the pointer is null

◆ isShared()

bool isShared ( ) const
inline

check if this Ptr has shared ownership or none ownership

Returns
true if Ptr has shared ownership, false if it has no ownership.

◆ operator cpp_shared_ptr()

operator cpp_shared_ptr ( ) const
inline

Implicitly convert to std::shared_ptr type.

Returns
std::shared_ptr

◆ operator==()

bool operator== ( const Ptr< A > &  p) const
inline

equallity operator, this only tests if the pointers to the referenced objects are the same and NOT if the smart pointers are the same.

Parameters
p[in] smart pointer to compare with
Returns
true if the referenced objects are the same

◆ scast() [1/2]

Ptr<S> scast ( )
inline

Cast the smart pointer statically to a different type.

This is more efficient if it is already known that the object is of a certain type. If this is not known, please use the more safe cast() instead.

Returns
smart pointer that can be null if cast was not possible.

◆ scast() [2/2]

Ptr<S> scast ( ) const
inline

Cast the smart pointer statically to a different type.

This is more efficient if it is already known that the object is of a certain type. If this is not known, please use the more safe cast() instead.

Returns
smart pointer that can be null if cast was not possible.

◆ toStd()

std::vector< std::shared_ptr< T > > toStd ( const std::vector< Ptr< T >> &  ptrs)
related

Parameters
ptrs[in] vector of Ptr.
Returns
a vector of std::shared_ptr with same size.
