Detailed Description

Utility class to be inherited from to obtain compatibility with the intrusive_ptr.

It implements both AddRef and Release methods and supports both thread safe and unsafe reference counting. This class (and its subclasses) are meant to be initialised and used through an intrusive_ptr.

class MyClass : public SelfReferenceCountingObject {
 public:
   static intrusive_ptr New() { return intrusive_ptr new MyClass(); }
 private:
   MyClass() = default;
};
 
int main() {
  const intrusive_ptr<MyClass> ptr{MyClass::New()};
}
