Detailed Description

Base class to support WeakPointer and SmartPointer.

Sometimes it's desired to support both weak and smart pointers at the same time. This base class will offer this support. Derive from this class to obtain the functions to easily allow SmartPointer and WeakPointer support.

Member Function Documentation

◆ get_StaticRTTI()

const Burger::StaticRTTI * Burger::WeakAndStrongBase::get_StaticRTTI ( void ) const

overridevirtualnoexcept

Get the description to the class.

This virtual function will pull the pointer to the StaticRTTI instance that has the name of the class. Due to it being virtual, it will be the name of the most derived class.

Returns: Pointer to a global, read only instance of StaticRTTI for the true class

Reimplemented from Burger::ReferenceCounter.

◆ GetProxyReferenceCounter()

ProxyReferenceCounter * Burger::WeakAndStrongBase::GetProxyReferenceCounter ( void ) const

inlinenoexcept

Function used by WeakPointer.

This function is inserted by BURGER_ALLOW_WEAK_POINTERS() to give support to WeakPointer

See also: WeakPointer or ProxyReferenceCounter

Member Data Documentation

◆ g_StaticRTTI

const Burger::StaticRTTI Burger::WeakAndStrongBase::g_StaticRTTI

static

The global description of the class.

This record contains the name of this class and a reference to the parent

◆ m_WeakPointerAnchor

WeakPointerAnchor Burger::WeakAndStrongBase::m_WeakPointerAnchor

private

Data to track WeakPointer data.

This data is used by the WeakPointer system to notify other objects that this object was deleted.
