The QWeakPointer class holds a weak reference to a shared pointer More...
#include <QWeakPointer>
Note: All the functions in this class are reentrant.
This class was introduced in Qt 4.5.
The QWeakPointer class holds a weak reference to a shared pointer
The QWeakPointer is an automatic weak reference to a pointer in C++. It cannot be used to dereference the pointer directly, but it can be used to verify if the pointer has been deleted or not in another context.
QWeakPointer objects can only be created by assignment from a QSharedPointer.
To access the pointer that QWeakPointer is tracking, you must first create a QSharedPointer object and verify if the pointer is null or not.
See also QSharedPointer.
Creates a QWeakPointer that points to nothing.
Creates a QWeakPointer that holds a weak reference to the pointer referenced by other.
If T is a derived type of the template parameter of this class, QWeakPointer will perform an automatic cast. Otherwise, you will get a compiler error.

Destroys this QWeakPointer object. The pointer referenced by this object will not be deleted.
Clears this QWeakPointer object, dropping the reference that it may have had to the pointer.
Returns true if this object is holding a reference to a null pointer.
Note that, due to the nature of weak references, the pointer that QWeakPointer references can become null at any moment, so the value returned from this function can change from false to true from one call to the next.
Promotes this weak reference to a strong one and returns a QSharedPointer object holding that reference.
Returns true if this object is not null. This function is suitable for use in if-constructs, like:
if (weakref) { ... }
Note that, due to the nature of weak references, the pointer that QWeakPointer references can become null at any moment, so the value returned from this function can change from true to false from one call to the next.
See also isNull().
Returns true if this object is null. This function is suitable for use in if-constructs, like:
if (!weakref) { ... }
Note that, due to the nature of weak references, the pointer that QWeakPointer references can become null at any moment, so the value returned from this function can change from false to true from one call to the next.

Makes this object share other's pointer. The current pointer reference is discarded but is not deleted.
If T is a derived type of the template parameter of this class, QWeakPointer will perform an automatic cast. Otherwise, you will get a compiler error.

Returns a shared pointer to the pointer held by other, cast to type X. The types T and X must belong to one hierarchy for the static_cast to succeed.
The other object is converted first to a strong reference. If that conversion fails (because the object it's pointing to has already been deleted), this function returns a null QSharedPointer.
Note that X must have the same cv-qualifiers (const and volatile) that T has, or the code will fail to compile. Use qSharedPointerConstCast to cast away the constness.
See also QWeakPointer::toStrongRef(), qSharedPointerDynamicCast(), and qSharedPointerConstCast().
Returns a shared pointer to the pointer held by other, cast to type X. The types T and X must belong to one hierarchy for the const_cast to succeed. The const and volatile differences between T and X are ignored.
The other object is converted first to a strong reference. If that conversion fails (because the object it's pointing to has already been deleted), this function returns a null QSharedPointer.
See also QWeakPointer::toStrongRef(), qSharedPointerCast(), and qSharedPointerDynamicCast().
Returns a shared pointer to the pointer held by other, using a dynamic cast to type X to obtain an internal pointer of the appropriate type. If the dynamic_cast fails, the object returned will be null.
The other object is converted first to a strong reference. If that conversion fails (because the object it's pointing to has already been deleted), this function also returns a null QSharedPointer.
Note that X must have the same cv-qualifiers (const and volatile) that T has, or the code will fail to compile. Use qSharedPointerConstCast to cast away the constness.

Returns true if the pointer referenced by ptr1 is not the same pointer as that referenced by ptr2.
If ptr2's template parameter is different from ptr1's, QSharedPointer will attempt to perform an automatic static_cast to ensure that the pointers being compared are equal. If ptr2's template parameter is not a base or a derived type from ptr1's, you will get a compiler error.
Returns true if the pointer referenced by ptr1 is not the same pointer as that referenced by ptr2.
If ptr2's template parameter is different from ptr1's, QSharedPointer will attempt to perform an automatic static_cast to ensure that the pointers being compared are equal. If ptr2's template parameter is not a base or a derived type from ptr1's, you will get a compiler error.
Returns true if the pointer referenced by ptr1 is the same pointer as that referenced by ptr2.
If ptr2's template parameter is different from ptr1's, QSharedPointer will attempt to perform an automatic static_cast to ensure that the pointers being compared are equal. If ptr2's template parameter is not a base or a derived type from ptr1's, you will get a compiler error.
