|
|
<p>The <b>scoped_array</b> class template stores a pointer to a dynamically
|
|
allocated array. (Dynamically allocated arrays are allocated with the C++ <b>new[]</b>
|
|
expression.) The array pointed to is guaranteed to be deleted, either on
|
|
destruction of the <b>scoped_array</b>, or via an explicit <b>reset</b>.</p>
|
|
<p>The <b>scoped_array</b> template is a simple solution for simple needs. It
|
|
supplies a basic "resource acquisition is initialization" facility, without
|
|
shared-ownership or transfer-of-ownership semantics. Both its name and
|
|
enforcement of semantics (by being <a href="../utility/utility.htm#Class_noncopyable">
|
|
noncopyable</a>) signal its intent to retain ownership solely within the
|
|
current scope. Because it is <a href="../utility/utility.htm#Class_noncopyable">noncopyable</a>,
|
|
it is safer than <b>shared_array</b> for pointers which should not be copied.</p>
|
|
<p>Because <b>scoped_array</b> is so simple, in its usual implementation every
|
|
operation is as fast as a built-in array pointer and it has no more space
|
|
overhead that a built-in array pointer.</p>
|
|
<p>It cannot be used in C++ standard library containers. See <a href="shared_array.htm">
|
|
<b>shared_array</b></a> if <b>scoped_array</b> does not meet your needs.</p>
|
|
<p>It cannot correctly hold a pointer to a single object. See <a href="scoped_ptr.htm"><b>scoped_ptr</b></a>
|
|
for that usage.</p>
|
|
<p>A <b>std::vector</b> is an alternative to a <b>scoped_array</b> that is a bit
|
|
heavier duty but far more flexible. A <b>boost::array</b> is an alternative
|
|
that does not use dynamic allocation.</p>
|
|
<p>The class template is parameterized on <b>T</b>, the type of the object pointed
|
|
to. <b>T</b> must meet the smart pointer <a href="smart_ptr.htm#common_requirements">
|
|
common requirements</a>.</p>

<h2>Members</h2>
|
|
<h3>
|
|
<a name="element_type">element_type</a></h3>
|
|
<pre>typedef T element_type;</pre>
|
|
<p>Provides the type of the stored pointer.</p>
|
|
<h3><a name="ctor">constructors</a></h3>
|
|
<pre>explicit scoped_array(T * p = 0); // never throws</pre>
|
|
<p>Constructs a <b>scoped_array</b>, storing a copy of <b>p</b>, which must have
|
|
been allocated via a C++ <b>new</b>[] expression or be 0. <b>T</b> is not
|
|
required be a complete type. See the smart pointer <a href="smart_ptr.htm#common_requirements">
|
|
common requirements</a>.</p>
|
|
<h3><a name="destructor">destructor</a></h3>
|
|
<pre>~scoped_array(); // never throws</pre>
|
|
<p>Deletes the array pointed to by the stored pointer. Note that <b>delete[]</b> on
|
|
a pointer with a value of 0 is harmless. The guarantee that this does not throw
|
|
exceptions depends on the requirement that the deleted array's objects'
|
|
destructors do not throw exceptions. See the smart pointer <a href="smart_ptr.htm#common_requirements">
|
|
common requirements</a>.</p>
|
|
<h3><a name="reset">reset</a></h3>
|
|
<pre>void reset(T * p = 0); // never throws</pre>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Deletes the array pointed to by the stored pointer and then stores a copy of p,
|
|
which must have been allocated via a C++ <b>new[]</b> expression or be 0. The
|
|
guarantee that this does not throw exceptions depends on the requirement that
|
|
the deleted array's objects' destructors do not throw exceptions. See the smart
|
|
pointer <a href="smart_ptr.htm#common_requirements">common requirements</a>.</p>
|
|
<h3><a name="operator[]">subscripting</a></h3>
|
|
<pre>T & operator[](std::ptrdiff_t i) const; // never throws</pre>
|
|
<p>Returns a reference to element <b>i</b> of the array pointed to by the stored
|
|
pointer. Behavior is undefined and almost certainly undesirable if the stored
|
|
pointer is 0, or if <b>i</b> is less than 0 or is greater than or equal to the
|
|
number of elements in the array.</p>
|
|
<h3><a name="get">get</a></h3>
|
|
<pre>T * get() const; // never throws</pre>
|
|
<p>Returns the stored pointer. <b>T</b> need not be a complete type. See the smart
|
|
pointer <a href="smart_ptr.htm#common_requirements">common requirements</a>.</p>
|
|
<h3><a name="conversions">conversions</a></h3>
|
|
<pre>operator <i>unspecified-bool-type</i> () const; // never throws</pre>
|
|
<p>Returns an unspecified value that, when used in boolean contexts, is equivalent
|
|
to <code>get() != 0</code>.</p>
|
|
<h3><a name="swap">swap</a></h3>
|
|
<pre>void swap(scoped_array & b); // never throws</pre>
|
|
<p>Exchanges the contents of the two smart pointers. <b>T</b> need not be a
|
|
complete type. See the smart pointer <a href="smart_ptr.htm#common_requirements">common
|
|
requirements</a>.</p>
|
|
<h2><a name="functions">Free Functions</a></h2>
|
|
<h3><a name="free-swap">swap</a></h3>
|
|
<pre>template<class T> void swap(scoped_array<T> & a, scoped_array<T> & b); // never throws</pre>
|
|
<p>Equivalent to <b>a.swap(b)</b>. Matches the interface of <b>std::swap</b>.
|
|
Provided as an aid to generic programming.</p>
