Detailed Description

template<class T>
class PP_CpClassPtr< T >

A Smart Pointer for User-Defined Types for ParmParse.

The template class PP_CpClassPtr<T> is derived from PP_CpPtr<T>. It provides a simple wrapper around a pointer to type T (a T*) that "does the right thing" when copied from one PP_CpPtr<T> to another. The type T MUST be a user-defined type, not an intrinsic type. Given this restriction, we can supply an operator->().

This is a convenience class for ParmParse and will not be in any way supported by anyone at ANAG.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class T> PP_CpClassPtr< T >::PP_CpClassPtr (    )  [inline]

: The default constructor. The wrapped pointer is null.

template<class T> PP_CpClassPtr< T >::PP_CpClassPtr (  T *    rhs )  [inline]

: Construct a PP_CpPtr<T> setting the wrapped pointer to rhs.

template<class T> PP_CpClassPtr< T >::PP_CpClassPtr (  const PP_CpClassPtr< T > &    rhs )  [inline]

: The copy constructor. If the pointer wrapped by rhs is null, the wrapped pointer is null here as well. Otherwise, the contained pointer here is set to a new'd copy of that wrapped by rhs, with the two pointed-to values being identical. This assumes that type T has a well-defined and accessible copy constructor. T must also be a concrete type, not a abstract type.

Member Function Documentation

template<class T> T * PP_CpClassPtr< T >::operator-> (    )  const [inline]

: Applies operator-> to the wrapped pointer.

template<class T> PP_CpClassPtr< T > & PP_CpClassPtr< T >::operator= (  const PP_CpClassPtr< T > &    rhs )  [inline]

: The copy assignment operator. If the pointer wrapped by rhs is null, the wrapped pointer is null here as well. Otherwise, the contained pointer here is set to a new'd copy of that wrapped by rhs, with the two pointed-to values being identical. This assumes that type T has a well-defined and accessible copy constructor. T must also be a concrete type, not a abstract type.

template<class T> PP_CpClassPtr< T > & PP_CpClassPtr< T >::operator= (  T *    rhs )  [inline]

: Sets the wrapped pointer to rhs. Deletes the previously wrapped pointer. Reimplemented from PP_CpPtr< T >.
