Detailed Description

Base class to derive from if you want to use Pointer<of something>.

The reference counting is done by Object.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

base::Object::Object (   )  [inline]

Constructor: initialize the reference counter.

virtual base::Object::~Object (   )  [inline, virtual]

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

void base::Object::addReference (   )  [inline]

Add a reference to this object. Use carefully because this will affect deallocation.

virtual void base::Object::destroy (   )  [inline, protected, virtual]

Wrapper to delete. It is virtual in case we have objects that are not deallocated by delete, in which case, the method is overriden. Reimplemented in base::Array< X >.

void base::Object::dropReference (   )  [inline]

Remove a reference to this object. Use carefully because this will affect deallocation.

bool base::Object::isMutable (   )  const [inline]

This is useful to know if this object may be modified safely. Returns: true if there is only one reference to this object.
