Detailed Description

template<typename Data>
class UT_COWHandle< Data >

A plain handle is an opaque refernce to the data. You can't read or write to it with this sort of handle, but you can copy and store it. Assign a plain handle into a ReadHandle or a WriteHandle to gain more privelages.

Member Function Documentation

template<typename Data>

void UT_COWHandle< Data >::allocate

(

)

[inline]

Calls the default constructor on the object.

Definition at line 89 of file UT_COW.h.

template<typename Data>

void UT_COWHandle< Data >::copy

(

Data *

src

)

[inline]

Makes a copy of the source data. This is the safest approach as the caller will retain ownership.

Definition at line 97 of file UT_COW.h.

template<typename Data>

const UT_COWHandle<Data>& UT_COWHandle< Data >::operator=

(

const UT_COWHandle< Data > &

src

)

[inline]

Definition at line 76 of file UT_COW.h.

template<typename Data>

void UT_COWHandle< Data >::resetHandle

(

)

[inline]

Turns us into a null pointer, a useful way to end our use of a handle without having to play weird scope games.

Definition at line 115 of file UT_COW.h.

template<typename Data>

void UT_COWHandle< Data >::steal

(

Data *

src

)

[inline]

Be careful when initializing using this function. The handle will gain ownership of the provided pointer, so the caller should cease referring to it.

Definition at line 107 of file UT_COW.h.
