## Detailed Description

### template<typename T>
struct fsdk::Ref< T >

Smart pointer for reference counted objects.

Automatically calls retain/release and provides safety assertions.

Template Parameters

  T | object interface (must be derived from IRefCounted)

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename T>

fsdk::Ref< T >::Ref | ( | T * | ptr | ) |
| inline explicit noexcept

Initializes object pointer with ptr and retains a reference.

Note
  this shares ownership.

Parameters

  [in] | ptr | raw pointer to initialize with.

template<typename T>

fsdk::Ref< T >::Ref | ( | const Ref< T > & | other | ) |
| inline

Initializes object pointer with other and retains a reference.

Note
  this shares ownership.

Parameters

  [in] | other | pointer to initialize with.

## Member Function Documentation

template<typename T>

Ref& fsdk::Ref< T >::acquire | ( | T * | ptr | ) |
| inline noexcept

Acquire ownership of the object.

Parameters

  [in] | ptr | raw object pointer to acquire.

template<typename T>
template<typename S >

Ref<S> fsdk::Ref< T >::as | ( |  | ) | const
| inline noexcept

Make smart reference with relative type.

Template Parameters

  S | target interface (must be relative to T)

template<typename T>

Ref& fsdk::Ref< T >::assign | ( | T * | ptr | ) |
| inline noexcept

Assign an object. Presumes shared ownership, increases reference count.

Parameters

  [in] | ptr | raw object pointer to assign.

template<typename T>

T** fsdk::Ref< T >::getInitReference | ( |  | ) |
| inline noexcept

Access pointer for initialization.

Note
  previously held pointer is released.

Returns
  pointer to pointer to object.

template<typename T>

bool fsdk::Ref< T >::operator!= | ( | const Ref< T > & | other | ) | const
| inline noexcept

Check if two refs are not the same.

Returns
  true if two refs are not the same.

Parameters

  [in] | other | ref to check against.

template<typename T>

T* fsdk::Ref< T >::operator-> | ( |  | ) | const
| inline noexcept

Access pointer.

Note
  pointer is checked for null in runtime.

Returns
  pointer to object.

template<typename T>

Ref& fsdk::Ref< T >::operator= | ( | const Ref< T > & | other | ) |
| inline noexcept

Assign a strong reference.

Parameters

  [in] | other | strong reference.

Returns
  reference.

template<typename T>

Ref& fsdk::Ref< T >::operator= | ( | T * | ptr | ) |
| inline noexcept

Assign a raw pointer.

Note
  this shares ownership.

Parameters

  [in] | ptr | raw pointer.

Returns
  reference.

template<typename T>

Ref& fsdk::Ref< T >::operator= | ( | std::nullptr_t |  | ) |
| inline noexcept

Assign a nullptr_t.

Note
  this releases previously held reference (if any).

Returns
  reference.

template<typename T>

bool fsdk::Ref< T >::operator== | ( | const Ref< T > & | other | ) | const
| inline noexcept

Check if two refs are the same.

Returns
  true if two refs are the same.

Parameters

  [in] | other | ref to check against.
