Detailed Description

template<class T>
class evo::Ptr< T[]>

Dumb pointer to array.

Useful for making it clear the pointer is not owned here, and is freed elsewhere
- Does not take ownership of any pointer, does not automatically free anything
Also useful for distinguishing between a static immutable data pointer (ex: string literal) and a dumb managed pointer
- Evo containers always copy from a dumb pointer, but may reference a raw pointer (assuming static immutable data)
Overrides pointer operators so dumb pointer can be used like a raw pointer/array
Copying a dumb pointer makes a copy of the pointer itself, referencing the same object(s) – only safe with containers if pointer outlives the container
For single object dumb pointer see: Ptr
Caution: Not thread safe

See Managed Pointers

C++11:

Move semantics

Template Parameters

T	Type to use pointer to with array suffix, ex: int[]

Example

#include <evo/ptr.h>
using namespace evo;
// It's clear here that this function does not take ownership of ptr
void func(Ptr<int[]> ptr) {
    // Use dumb array ptr
}
int main() {
    // Create a smart pointer, set to value
    SmartPtr<int[]> ptr(new int[3]);
    ptr[0] = 1;
    ptr[1] = 2;
    ptr[2] = 3;
    // Call function that uses the pointer
    func(ptr);
    return 0;
}
