Detailed Description

       Pointer to reference counted objects.

       This is a non-template form of a reference count smart pointer, and so uses common code. This can be
       subclassed to return explicit object types.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

   ost::RefPointer::RefPointer () [inline]
       Create an unattached pointer.

   ost::RefPointer::RefPointer (RefObject *obj)
       Create a pointer attached to a reference counted object. Object being referenced.

   ost::RefPointer::RefPointer (const RefPointer &ptr)
       A copy constructor. Pointer being copied.

   virtual ost::RefPointer::~RefPointer () [virtual]

Member Function Documentation

   void ost::RefPointer::detach (void) [protected]
       Detach current object, for example, when changing pointer.

   virtual void ost::RefPointer::enterLock (void) [protected],  [virtual]
       Patch point for mutex in derived class. This may often be a single static mutex shared by a managed type.

   void* ost::RefPointer::getObject (void) const
   virtual void ost::RefPointer::leaveLock (void) [protected],  [virtual]
       Patch point for a mutex in derived class. This may often be a single static mutex shared by a managed
       type.

   bool ost::RefPointer::operator! () const
   void* ost::RefPointer::operator* () const [inline]
   void* ost::RefPointer::operator-> () const [inline]
   RefPointer& ost::RefPointer::operator= (const RefObject &ref)
