Reference counting for shared objects. If you derive your object from this class, then you may use it in conjunction with KSharedPtr to control the lifetime of your object.
Specifically, all classes that derive from KShared have an internal counter keeping track of how many other objects have a reference to their object. If used with KSharedPtr, then your object will not be deleted until all references to the object have been released.
You should probably not ever use any of the methods in this class directly -- let the KSharedPtr take care of that. Just derive your class from KShared and forget about it.
| KShared ()
| KShared |
Standard constructor. This will initialize the reference count on this object to 0
| KShared ( const KShared & )
| KShared |
Copy constructor. This will not actually copy the objects but it will initialize the reference count on this object to 0
| KShared & operator= (const KShared & )
| operator= |
Overloaded assignment operator
| void _KShared_ref ()
| _KShared_ref |
Increases the reference count by one
| void _KShared_unref ()
| _KShared_unref |
Releases a reference (decreases the reference count by one). If the count goes to 0, this object will delete itself
| int _KShared_count ()
| _KShared_count |
Return the current number of references held
Returns: Number of references
| ~KShared ()
| ~KShared |
