You can safely test the pointer for validity. -.PP -Example: -.PP -.nf -.br - QGuardedPtr<QLabel> label = new QLabel( 0, "label" ); -.br - label->setText( "I like guarded pointers" ); -.br -.br - delete (QLabel*) label; // simulate somebody destroying the label -.br -.br - if ( label) -.br - label->show(); -.br - else -.br - tqDebug("The label has been destroyed"); -.br -.fi -.PP -The program will output \fCThe label has been destroyed\fR rather than dereferencing an invalid address in \fClabel->show()\fR. -.PP -The functions and operators available with a QGuardedPtr are the same as those available with a normal unguarded pointer, except the pointer arithmetic operators (++, --, -, and +), which are normally used only with arrays of objects. Use them like normal pointers and you will not need to read this class documentation. -.PP -For creating guarded pointers, you can construct or assign to them from an X* or from another guarded pointer of the same type. You can compare them with each other using operator==() and operator!=(), or test for 0 with isNull(). And you can dereference them using either the \fC*x\fR or the \fCx->member\fR notation. -.PP -A guarded pointer will automatically cast to an X*, so you can freely mix guarded and unguarded pointers. This means that if you have a QGuardedPtr<QWidget>, you can pass it to a function that requires a QWidget*. For this reason, it is of little value to declare functions to take a QGuardedPtr as a parameter; just use normal pointers. Use a QGuardedPtr when you are storing a pointer over time. -.PP -Note again that class \fIX\fR must inherit QObject, or a compilation or link error will result. -.PP -See also Object Model. -.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION -.SH "QGuardedPtr::QGuardedPtr ()" -Constructs a 0 guarded pointer. -.PP -See also isNull(). -.SH "QGuardedPtr::QGuardedPtr ( T * p )" -Constructs a guarded pointer that points to same object as \fIp\fR points to. -.SH "QGuardedPtr::QGuardedPtr ( const QGuardedPtr<T> & p )" -Copy one guarded pointer from another. The constructed guarded pointer points to the same object that \fIp\fR points to (which may be 0). -.SH "QGuardedPtr::~QGuardedPtr ()" -Destroys the guarded pointer. Just like a normal pointer, destroying a guarded pointer does \fInot\fR destroy the object being pointed to. -.SH "bool QGuardedPtr::isNull () const" -Returns \fCTRUE\fR if the referenced object has been destroyed or if there is no referenced object; otherwise returns FALSE. -.SH "QGuardedPtr::operator T * () const" -Cast operator; implements pointer semantics. Because of this function you can pass a QGuardedPtr<X> to a function where an X* is required. -.SH "bool QGuardedPtr::operator!= ( const QGuardedPtr<T> & p ) const" -Inequality operator; implements pointer semantics, the negation of operator==(). Returns TRUE if \fIp\fR and this guarded pointer are not pointing to the same object; otherwise returns FALSE. -.SH "T & QGuardedPtr::operator* () const" -Dereference operator; implements pointer semantics. Just use this operator as you would with a normal C++ pointer. -.SH "T * QGuardedPtr::operator-> () const" -Overloaded arrow operator; implements pointer semantics. Just use this operator as you would with a normal C++ pointer. -.SH "QGuardedPtr<T> & QGuardedPtr::operator= ( const QGuardedPtr<T> & p )" -Assignment operator. This guarded pointer then points to the same object as \fIp\fR points to. -.SH "QGuardedPtr<T> & QGuardedPtr::operator= ( T * p )" -This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function. -.PP -Assignment operator. This guarded pointer then points to the same object as \fIp\fR points to. -.SH "bool QGuardedPtr::operator== ( const QGuardedPtr<T> & p ) const" -Equality operator; implements traditional pointer semantics. Returns TRUE if both \fIp\fR and this guarded pointer are 0, or if both \fIp\fR and this pointer point to the same object; otherwise returns FALSE. -.PP -See also operator!=(). - -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.BR http://doc.trolltech.com/ntqguardedptr.html -.BR http://www.trolltech.com/faq/tech.html -.SH COPYRIGHT -Copyright 1992-2007 Trolltech ASA, http://www.trolltech.com.
