15 // ScopedTypeRef<> is patterned after scoped_ptr<>, but maintains a ownership
16 // of a reference to any type that is maintained by Retain and Release methods.
18 // The Traits structure must provide the Retain and Release methods for type T.
19 // A default ScopedTypeRefTraits is used but not defined, and should be defined
20 // for each type to use this interface. For example, an appropriate definition
21 // of ScopedTypeRefTraits for CGLContextObj would be:
23 // template<>
24 // struct ScopedTypeRefTraits<CGLContextObj> {
25 // void Retain(CGLContextObj object) { CGLContextRetain(object); }
26 // void Release(CGLContextObj object) { CGLContextRelease(object); }
27 // };
29 // For the many types that have pass-by-pointer create functions, the function
30 // InitializeInto() is provided to allow direct initialization and assumption
31 // of ownership of the object. For example, continuing to use the above
32 // CGLContextObj specialization:
34 // base::ScopedTypeRef<CGLContextObj> context;
35 // CGLCreateContext(pixel_format, share_group, context.InitializeInto());
37 // For initialization with an existing object, the caller may specify whether
38 // the ScopedTypeRef<> being initialized is assuming the caller's existing
39 // ownership of the object (and should not call Retain in initialization) or if
40 // it should not assume this ownership and must create its own (by calling
41 // Retain in initialization). This behavior is based on the |policy| parameter,
42 // with |ASSUME| for the former and |RETAIN| for the latter. The default policy
43 // is to |ASSUME|.
