Detailed Description

class Diligent::RefCntWeakPtr< T >

Implementation of weak pointer.

Member Function Documentation

IsValid()

template<typename T>

bool Diligent::RefCntWeakPtr< T >::IsValid ( ) const

inlinenoexcept

Note

This method may not be reliable in a multithreaded environment. However, when false is returned, the strong pointer created from this weak pointer will reliably be empty.

Lock()

template<typename T>

RefCntAutoPtr< T > Diligent::RefCntWeakPtr< T >::Lock ( ) const

inline

Obtains a strong reference to the object.

Note

This method does not reset expired weak pointers. Call Release() explicitly to clear the weak pointer when needed.

UnsafeRawPtr()

template<typename T>

T * Diligent::RefCntWeakPtr< T >::UnsafeRawPtr ( )

inlinenoexcept

Returns a raw pointer to the managed object.

Note

The object may or may not be alive. The returned pointer must not be AddRef()'d unless object lifetime is externally guaranteed. Use Lock() to atomically obtain a strong reference from this weak pointer.
