Detailed Description

template<class Tp>
class zypp::AutoDispose< Tp >

Reference counted access to a Tp object calling a custom Dispose function when the last AutoDispose handle to it is destroyed or reset.

Note: As with pointers, constness of an AutoDispose object does not apply to the stored Tp object. If the stored Tp object should be immutable, you should use AutoDispose<const Tp>.

Pass a filename to the application and provide the appropriate code to be executed when the file is no longer needed:

struct FileCache
{
  Pathname getFile();
  void     releaseFile( const Pathname & );
};
static FileCache cache;
void unlink( const Pathname & file_r );
AutoDispose<const Pathname> provideFile( ... )
{
  if ( file_is_in_cache )
    {
      // will call 'cache.releaseFile( file )'
      return AutoDispose<const Pathname>( cache.getFile(),
                                          bind( &FileCache::releaseFile, ref(cache), _1 ) );
    }
  else if ( file_is_temporary )
    {
      // will call 'unlink( file )'
      return AutoDispose<const Pathname>( file, unlink );
    }
  else if ( file_is_permanent )
    {
      // will do nothing.
      return AutoDispose<const Pathname>( file );
    }
  else
    {
      // will do nothing.
      return AutoDispose<const Pathname>();
    }
}

Exception safe handling of temporary files:

void provideFileAt( const Pathname & destination )
{
  AutoDispose<const Pathname> guard( destination, unlink );
  // Any exception here will lead to 'unlink( destination )'
  // ...
  // On success: reset the dispose function to NOOP.
  guard.resetDispose();
}
