OwningPointer< T > Class Template Reference

Owning pointer. Object that contains a pointer to an object. This object is owned by the OwningPointer therefore delete the OwningPointer will delete the owned object. More...

Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class ConceptRT::OwningPointer< T >

Owning pointer. Object that contains a pointer to an object. This object is owned by the OwningPointer therefore delete the OwningPointer will delete the owned object.

Helper class that enables us to use pointer safely.

Template Parameters

T	Type of the pointer.

The object is owned by the OwningPointer therefore delete the OwningPointer will delete the owned object. Example :

void myFunction()
{
  OwningPointer<Gripper> newGripper;
  newGripper = new Gripper();

  newGripper->Open();
  // ...
  // ... if exception => OwningPointer will be deleted and the newGripper as well
  newGripper.Clear(); // force delete 
  //(not necessary here because the end of context will delete the owningPointer and its pointed object.)
};
