Detailed Description

template<class T>
class disti::WeakRef< T >

helper class to simplify working with a weak reference Ex Usage: DisplayObject* obj = GetSomeDisplayObject(); WeakRef< DisplayObject > weakRef = obj; ... ... some code that may or may not have deleted obj ... if( !weakRef.IsNull() ) { weakRef.Get()->Location( 0, 0, 0 ); }

WeakRef< U > ( can be NULL )

Member Function Documentation

Get()

T * Get ( ) const

inline

Get a T*

Returns

if referent exists and supports interface T then return a pointer to T, else return NULL

GetWeakReferenceable()

WeakReferenceable * GetWeakReferenceable ( ) const

inline

get the WeakReferenceable* contained in this weak ref

Returns

the WeakReferenceable pointer contained in this weak ref ( can be NULL )

IsNull()

bool IsNull ( ) const

inline

determine if weak reference is NULL

Returns

true if weak ref is NULL else false

operator=() [1/3]

WeakRef & operator= ( const WeakRef< T > &  w )

inline

assign this pointer to point to the given WeakRef< T >

Parameters

w	WeakRef< T > in question (can be NULL)

Returns

a ref to this

operator=() [2/3]

WeakRef & operator= ( const WeakRef< U > &  w )

inline

assign this pointer to point to the given WeakRef< U >

Parameters

w	WeakRef< U > in question (can be NULL)

Returns

a ref to this

operator=() [3/3]

WeakRef & operator= ( WeakReferenceable *  weakReferenceable )

inline

assign this weak ref to reference the given WeakReferenceable*

Parameters

weakReferenceable

WeakReferenceable* in question (can be NULL)

Returns

a ref to this
