22 * \brief C++ API: "Smart pointers" for use with and in ICU4C C++ code.
24 * These classes are inspired by
26 * - boost::scoped_ptr & boost::scoped_array
27 * - Taligent Safe Pointers (TOnlyPointerTo)
29 * but none of those provide for all of the goals for ICU smart pointers:
30 * - Smart pointer owns the object and releases it when it goes out of scope.
31 * - No transfer of ownership via copy/assignment to reduce misuse. Simpler & more robust.
32 * - ICU-compatible: No exceptions.
33 * - Need to be able to orphan/release the pointer and its ownership.
34 * - Need variants for normal C++ object pointers, C++ arrays, and ICU C service objects.
36 * For details see http://site.icu-project.org/design/cpp/scoped_ptr

46 * "Smart pointer" base class; do not use directly: use LocalPointer etc.
48 * Base class for smart pointer classes that do not throw exceptions.
50 * Do not use this base class directly, since it does not delete its pointer.
51 * A subclass must implement methods that delete the pointer:
52 * Destructor and adoptInstead().
54 * There is no operator T *() provided because the programmer must decide
55 * whether to use getAlias() (without transfer of ownership) or orphan()
56 * (with transfer of ownership and NULLing of the pointer).
