MemberHolder Class Template Reference

#include <coherence/lang/MemberHolder.hpp>

Detailed Description

template<class T>
class coherence::lang::MemberHolder< T >

MemberHolder is a thread-safe handle implementation which supports referencing Objects as either Handles or Views.

MemberHolder can safely be used in place of View but adds the ability to attempt a safe down cast to a Handle. This differs from the C++ const_cast in that the down cast will only succeed if the MemberHolder had been assigned from a Handle, an assignment from a View results in a MemberHolder whose down cast operation will throw a ClassCastException.

MemberHolder is not for general use, instead it is a convenience handle type which can be used for container like classes, which need to be able to contain both Handles and Views.

Note: In the rare case that a MemberHolder is declared via the mutable keyword, the MemberHolder must be informed of this fact by setting fMutable to true during construction.

Public Types

typedef const T ValueType

The type of the values the holder can reference.

typedef T::Handle ValueHandle

The Handle type for the referenced Object.

typedef T::View ValueView

The View type for the referenced Object.

typedef T::Holder ValueHolder

The Holder type for the referenced Object.

typedef TypedHolder< T > GetType

Result type for a non-const get operation.

Public Member Functions

MemberHolder (const Object &oGuardian)

Construct a new MemberHolder referencing NULL via a handle.

MemberHolder (const Object &oGuardian, const TypedHolder< T > &that)

Construct a new MemberHolder referencing the specified Object.

MemberHolder (const Object &oGuardian, const TypedHolder< T > &that, bool fMutable)

Construct a new MemberHolder referencing the specified Object.

~MemberHolder ()

Destroy the MemberHolder.

MemberHolder & operator= (const MemberHolder &that)

Assign this MemberHolder to reference the same Object (and in the same manner) as the specified MemberHolder.

MemberHolder & operator= (const TypedHolder< T > &that)

Assign this MemberHolder to reference the same Object (and in the same manner) as the specified MemberHolder.

operator ValueView () const

Return a View to the referenced Object.

template<class PT>

o () const

Return a View to the referenced Object.

template<class PT>

o () const

Return a TypedHolder to the referenced Object.

ValueView operator-> () const

Dereference the MemberHolder.

const T & operator * () const

Dereference this handle, returning T&.

Protected Member Functions

MemberHolder ()

Construct a MemberHolder without any associated guardian.

virtual void onEscape (bool fEscaped) const

Event called when the guarding Object's escape state changes.

Derived implementations of this method should include a delegation call to their super class onEscape() method, after they've done their own processing of the event.

Parameters:

fEscaped

true if the object is being escaped, false if the object is being captured

virtual size64_t retained () const

Return the deep byte size of any managed objects held by this SmartMember.

void set (const TypedHolder< T > &that, SynchronizedMemberWriteBlock *pSync=NULL)

Set the Holder to reference an Object via a View.

void setEscaped (const TypedHolder< T > &that, SynchronizedMemberWriteBlock *pSync=NULL)

Set the escaped Holder to reference an Object via a View.

TypedHolder< T > get (SynchronizedMemberReadBlock *pSync=NULL) const

Return a TypedHolder referencing the same Object as this MemberHolder.

TypedHolder< T > getEscaped (SynchronizedMemberReadBlock *pSync=NULL) const

Return a TypedHolder referencing the same Object as this MemberHolder.

void performAction (Action nAction) const

Perform the specified action.

Protected Attributes

T * m_po

The referenced Object.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MemberHolder ( const Object & oGuardian ) [inline]

Construct a new MemberHolder referencing NULL via a handle.

Parameters:

oGuardian

the object that protects this member

MemberHolder	(	const Object &	oGuardian,
		const TypedHolder< T > &	that
	)			`[inline]`

Construct a new MemberHolder referencing the specified Object.

Parameters:

	oGuardian	the object that protects this member
	that	the Object to reference

MemberHolder	(	const Object &	oGuardian,
		const TypedHolder< T > &	that,
		bool	fMutable
	)			`[inline]`

Construct a new MemberHolder referencing the specified Object.

Parameters:

	oGuardian	the object that protects this member
	that	the Object to reference
	fMutable	true if the member is declared as mutable, false if declared as const

MemberHolder ( ) [inline, protected]

Construct a MemberHolder without any associated guardian.

The new MemberHolder is not usable until the guardian is specified.

Member Function Documentation

MemberHolder& operator= ( const MemberHolder< T > & that ) [inline]

Parameters:

that

the object to reference

Returns:: a reference to this MemberHolder

MemberHolder& operator= ( const TypedHolder< T > & that ) [inline]

ValueView operator-> ( ) const [inline]

Dereference the MemberHolder.

Returns:: a const pointer to the referenced Object

const T& operator * ( ) const [inline]

Dereference this handle, returning T&.

Returns:: a raw T& reference to the referenced Object

Exceptions:

NullPointerException if the this handle is NULL

void set	(	const TypedHolder< T > &	that,
		SynchronizedMemberWriteBlock *	pSync = `NULL`
	)			`[inline, protected]`

Set the Holder to reference an Object via a View.

Parameters:

	that	the Object to reference
	pSync	the synch block to delegate to or NULL to create one

void setEscaped	(	const TypedHolder< T > &	that,
