mi::base::Interface_implement_singleton< I> Template Class Reference

[Interface Framework Technology]

template< class I>

class mi::base::Interface_implement_singleton< I>

Description

Mixin class template for deriving singleton interface implementations, where the reference count is fixed to one. mi::base::Interface_implement is a mixin class template that allows you to derive interface class implementations easily. It provides you with a special implementation of reference counting and the mi::base::IInterface::get_interface( const Uuid&) method. It requires that you used interfaces derived from the corresponding mixin class template mi::base::Interface_declare.

The reference counting is fixed to have a count of always one. It is suitable, for example, for singleton objects that get once allocated and never deallocated.

mi::base::Interface_implement is derived from the interface I.

Uuid mi::base::Interface_implement_singleton< I>::get_iid() const [inline]

Returns the interface ID of the most derived interface.

virtual const IInterface* mi::base::Interface_implement_singleton< I>::get_interface( const Uuid& interface_id) const [inline, virtual]

Acquires a const interface. If this interface is derived from or is the interface with the passed interface_id, then return a non-NULL const mi::base::IInterface* that can be casted via static_cast to an interface pointer of the interface type corresponding to the passed interface_id. Otherwise return NULL.

In the case of a non-NULL return value, the caller receives ownership of the new interface pointer, whose reference count has been retained once. The caller must release the returned interface pointer at the end to prevent a memory leak.

virtual IInterface* mi::base::Interface_implement_singleton< I>::get_interface( const Uuid& interface_id) [inline, virtual]

Acquires a mutable interface. If this interface is derived from or is the interface with the passed interface_id, then return a non-NULL mi::base::IInterface* that can be casted via static_cast to an interface pointer of the interface type corresponding to the passed interface_id. Otherwise return NULL.

In the case of a non-NULL return value, the caller receives ownership of the new interface pointer, whose reference count has been retained once. The caller must release the returned interface pointer at the end to prevent a memory leak.

virtual Uint32 mi::base::Interface_implement_singleton< I>::release() const [inline, virtual]

Returns the fixed reference count of one. Implements mi::base::IInterface::release() with a constant reference count of one. The object will never be deleted through a release call.

virtual Uint32 mi::base::Interface_implement_singleton< I>::retain() const [inline, virtual]

Returns the fixed reference count of one. Implements mi::base::IInterface::retain() with a constant reference count of one.
