CHeapPtr Class

  • Article

A smart pointer class for managing heap pointers.

Important

This class and its members cannot be used in applications that execute in the Windows Runtime.

template< 
typename T, 
class Allocator= CCRTAllocator 
> class CHeapPtr : 
public CHeapPtrBase< T, Allocator>

Parameters

  • T
    The object type to be stored on the heap.

  • Allocator
    The memory allocation class to use.

CHeapPtr::operator =

The assignment operator.
