Simpler & more robust. 32 * - ICU-compatible: No exceptions. 33 * - Need to be able to orphan/release the pointer and its ownership. 34 * - Need variants for normal C++ object pointers, C++ arrays, and ICU C service objects. 35 * 36 * For details see http://site.icu-project.org/design/cpp/scoped_ptr 37 */ 38 39 #include "unicode/utypes.h" 40 41 #if U_SHOW_CPLUSPLUS_API 42 43 U_NAMESPACE_BEGIN 44 45 /** 46 * "Smart pointer" base class; do not use directly: use LocalPointer etc. 47 * 48 * Base class for smart pointer classes that do not throw exceptions. 49 * 50 * Do not use this base class directly, since it does not delete its pointer. 51 * A subclass must implement methods that delete the pointer: 52 * Destructor and adoptInstead(). 53 * 54 * There is no operator T *() provided because the programmer must decide 55 * whether to use getAlias() (without transfer of ownership) or orpan() 56 * (with transfer of ownership and NULLing of the pointer). 57 * 58 * @see LocalPointer 59 * @see LocalArray 60 * @see U_DEFINE_LOCAL_OPEN_POINTER 61 * @stable ICU 4.4 62 */ 63 template<typename T> 64 class LocalPointerBase { 65 public: 66 /** 67 * Constructor takes ownership. 68 * @param p simple pointer to an object that is adopted 69 * @stable ICU 4.4 70 */ 71 explicit LocalPointerBase(T *p=NULL) : ptr(p) {} 72 /** 73 * Destructor deletes the object it owns. 74 * Subclass must override: Base class does nothing. 75 * @stable ICU 4.4 76 */ 77 ~LocalPointerBase() { /* delete ptr; */ } 78 /** 79 * NULL check. 80 * @return TRUE if ==NULL 81 * @stable ICU 4.4 82 */ 83 UBool isNull() const { return ptr==NULL; } 84 /** 85 * NULL check. 86 * @return TRUE if !=NULL 87 * @stable ICU 4.4 88 */ 89 UBool isValid() const { return ptr!=NULL; } 90 /** 91 * Comparison with a simple pointer, so that existing code 92 * with ==NULL need not be changed. 93 * @param other simple pointer for comparison 94 * @return true if this pointer value equals other 95 * @stable ICU 4.4 96 */ 97 bool operator==(const T *other) const { return ptr==other; } 98 /** 99 * Comparison with a simple pointer, so that existing code 100 * with !=NULL need not be changed. 101 * @param other simple pointer for comparison 102 * @return true if this pointer value differs from other 103 * @stable ICU 4.4 104 */ 105 bool operator!=(const T *other) const { return ptr!=other; } 106 /** 107 * Access without ownership change. 108 * @return the pointer value 109 * @stable ICU 4.4 110 */ 111 T *getAlias() const { return ptr; } 112 /** 113 * Access without ownership change. 114 * @return the pointer value as a reference 115 * @stable ICU 4.4 116 */ 117 T &operator*() const { return *ptr; } 118 /** 119 * Access without ownership change. 120 * @return the pointer value 121 * @stable ICU 4.4 122 */ 123 T *operator->() const { return ptr; } 124 /** 125 * Gives up ownership; the internal pointer becomes NULL. 126 * @return the pointer value; 127 * caller becomes responsible for deleting the object 128 * @stable ICU 4.4 129 */ 130 T *orphan() { 131 T *p=ptr; 132 ptr=NULL; 133 return p; 134 } 135 /** 136 * Deletes the object it owns, 137 * and adopts (takes ownership of) the one passed in. 138 * Subclass must override: Base class does not delete the object. 139 * @param p simple pointer to an object that is adopted 140 * @stable ICU 4.4 141 */ 142 void adoptInstead(T *p) { 143 // delete ptr; 144 ptr=p; 145 } 146 protected: 147 /** 148 * Actual pointer. 149 * @internal 150 */ 151 T *ptr; 152 private: 153 // No comparison operators with other LocalPointerBases. 154 bool operator==(const LocalPointerBase &other); 155 bool operator!=(const LocalPointerBase &other); 156 // No ownership transfer: No copy constructor, no assignment operator. 157 LocalPointerBase(const LocalPointerBase &other); 158 void operator=(const LocalPointerBase &other); 159 // No heap allocation.
