Detailed Description

Smart pointer that can point to any type, and optionally takes ownership of the object pointer.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

AnyPtr() [1/3]

AnyPtr ( ValueType *  value )

inline

constructor - ownership of pointer is taken

Parameters

value

[in] a raw pointer.

AnyPtr() [2/3]

AnyPtr ( const rw::core::Ptr< ValueType > &  value )

inline

Construct from Ptr - shares ownership.

Parameters

value

[in] a smart pointer.

AnyPtr() [3/3]

AnyPtr ( const AnyPtr &  other )

inline

Copy constructor - ownership is shared.

Parameters

other

[in] other AnyPtr object.

Member Function Documentation

cast()

Ptr<S> cast ( ) const

inline

Cast to a specific smart pointer type.

Returns

a Ptr object pointing to object if cast success, otherwise a NULL Ptr object is returned.

get()

S* get ( ) const

inline

The pointer stored in the object.

Returns

raw pointer.

isNull()

bool isNull ( ) const

inline

Check if pointer is null.

Returns

true is the smart pointer is null.

operator=()

AnyPtr& operator= ( const AnyPtr &  rhs )

inline

copy assignemt

Parameters

rhs	[in] the Ptr to copy.

operator==() [1/3]

bool operator== ( const AnyPtr &  p ) const

inline

Equality 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] any pointer to compare with

Returns

true if the referenced objects are the same

operator==() [2/3]

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

inline

Equality 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

operator==() [3/3]

bool operator== ( void *  p ) const

inline

Tests if the smart pointer points to the same instance as p.

Returns

true if equal, false otherwise.

type()

const std::type_info& type ( ) const

inline

Get type info for the object pointed to.

Returns

type_info object.
