Detailed Description

template<class T>
class scoped_refptr< T >

A smart pointer class for reference counted objects.

Use this class instead of calling AddRef and Release manually on a reference counted object to avoid common memory leaks caused by forgetting to Release an object reference. Sample usage:

  class MyFoo : public RefCounted<MyFoo> {
   ...
   private:
    friend class RefCounted<MyFoo>;  // Allow destruction by RefCounted<>.
    ~MyFoo();                        // Destructor must be
    private/protected.
  };

  void some_function() {
    scoped_refptr<MyFoo> foo = MakeRefCounted<MyFoo>();
    foo->Method(param);
    // |foo| is released when this function returns
  }

  void some_other_function() {
    scoped_refptr<MyFoo> foo = MakeRefCounted<MyFoo>();
    ...
    foo.reset();  // explicitly releases |foo|
    ...
    if (foo)
      foo->Method(param);
  }

The above examples show how scoped_refptr<T> acts like a pointer to T. Given two scoped_refptr<T> classes, it is also possible to exchange references between the two objects, like so:

  {
    scoped_refptr<MyFoo> a = MakeRefCounted<MyFoo>();
    scoped_refptr<MyFoo> b;

    b.swap(a);
    // now, |b| references the MyFoo object, and |a| references nullptr.
  }

To make both |a| and |b| in the above example reference the same MyFoo object, simply use the assignment operator:

  {
    scoped_refptr<MyFoo> a = MakeRefCounted<MyFoo>();
    scoped_refptr<MyFoo> b;

    b = a;
    // now, |a| and |b| each own a reference to the same MyFoo object.
  }

Also see Chromium's ownership and calling conventions: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/lkgr/styleguide/c++/c++.md#object-ownership-and-calling-conventions Specifically: If the function (at least sometimes) takes a ref on a refcounted object, declare the param as scoped_refptr<T>. The caller can decide whether it wishes to transfer ownership (by calling std::move(t) when passing t) or retain its ref (by simply passing t directly). In other words, use scoped_refptr like you would a std::unique_ptr except in the odd case where it's required to hold on to a ref while handing one to another component (if a component merely needs to use t on the stack without keeping a ref: pass t as a raw T*).
