Constructor & Destructor Documentation

auto_destructor (  value_type *    t )  [inline, explicit]

Constructs from the pointer to an instance whose lifetime will be managedd.

auto_destructor (  return_value_rhs_type    rhs )  [inline]

Constructs from the return_value_type, transferring ownership from it.

~auto_destructor (    )  [inline]

Destroys the managed instance.

---

Member Function Documentation

value_type* detach (    )  [inline]

Detaches the managed instance from the auto_destructor and returns a pointer to it to the caller. Note: The caller becomes responsible for destroying the instance.

operator const value_type * (    )  const [inline]

Implicit conversion to pointer-to-const to the managed instance.

operator value_type * (    )  [inline]

Implicit conversion to pointer to the managed instance.
