Detailed Description
template<class T>
class csRef< T >
A smart pointer.
Maintains and correctly manages a reference to a reference-counted object. This template requires only that the object type T implement the methods IncRef() and DecRef(). No other requirements are placed upon T.
- Remarks:
- An extended explanation on smart pointers - how they work and what type to use in what scenario - is contained in the User's manual, section "Correctly Using Smart Pointers".

Member Function Documentation
Assign an object reference created with the new operator to this smart pointer.
- Remarks:
- This function allows you to assign an object pointer created with the
new
operator to the csRef object. Proper usage would be:While not recommended, you can also use this function to assign a csPtr object or csRef object to the csRef. In both of these cases, using AttachNew is equivalent to performing a simple assignment using thecsRef<iEvent> event; event.AttachNew (new csEvent);
=
operator.
- Note:
- Calling this function is equivalent to casting an object to a csPtr<T> and then assigning the csPtr<T> to the csRef, as follows:
// Same effect as above code. csRef<iEvent> event = csPtr<iEvent> (new csEvent);

Assign a raw object reference to this smart pointer.
- Remarks:
- This function calls the object's IncRef() method. Because of this you should not assign a reference created with the new operator to a csRef object driectly. The following code will produce a memory leak: If you are assigning a new object to a csRef, use AttachNew(T* newObj) instead.
csRef<iEvent> event = new csEvent;
Assign a csPtr to a smart pointer.
Doesn't call IncRef() on the object since it is assumed that the object in csPtr is already IncRef()'ed.
- Remarks:
- After this assignment, the csPtr<T> object is invalidated and cannot be used. You should not (and in fact cannot) decref the csPtr<T> after this assignment has been made.
