RWTCounter()

#include <rw/pointer/RWTCounter.h>

A class for maintaining a reference count. Uses the template type as a lock for atomicity.

Generally, you will use one of two typedefs provided by the Smart Pointer package. RWSafeCounter is a typedef for RWTCounter<RWMutexLock> and provides thread-safe reference counting. RWUnsafeCounter is a typedef for RWTCounter<RWNullMutexLock> and can be used for greater efficiency when thread-safety is not required.

RWTCounter(RWStaticCtor);

Constructs a static instance (does not initialize the reference count). Throws no exceptions.

RWTCounter(unsigned initCount = 0);

Constructs a default instance (initializes the reference count). Throws no exceptions.

RWTCounter(const RWTCounter<Mutex>& second);

Does not copy the internal count. This method is provided as a convenience to derived classes.

RWTCounter<Mutex>&
operator=(const RWTCounter<Mutex>& second);

Does not assign the internal count. This method is provided as a convenience to derived classes.
