Steinberg::U Namespace Reference

Shortcut namespace for implementing FUnknown based objects. More...

Classes
struct	Directly
	This struct is used to group a list of interfaces from which should be inherited and which should be available via the queryInterface method. More...
struct	Indirectly
	This struct is used to group a list of interfaces from which should not be inherited but which should be available via the queryInterface method. More...
struct	UID
	This class provides a compile-time uid and enables interfaces to specify a UID as a simple typedef. More...

Typedefs
using	Unknown = FUnknownImpl::HideIIDBase
template<typename BaseClass, typename D, typename I = Indirectly<>>
using	Extends
	This typedef enables using a custom base class with the interface implementation.
template<typename D, typename I = Indirectly<>>
using	Implements
	This typedef provides the interface implementation.
template<typename D, typename I = Indirectly<>>
using	ImplementsNonDestroyable
	This typedef provides the interface implementation for objects which should not be destroyed via FUnknown::release (like singletons).

Functions
template<typename I>
IPtr< I >	cast (Unknown *u)
	Checks if the given Unknown can provide the specified interface and returns it in an IPtr.
template<typename T>
const TUID &	getTUID ()

Detailed Description

Shortcut namespace for implementing FUnknown based objects.

Typedef Documentation

Unknown

using Unknown = FUnknownImpl::HideIIDBase

Extends

template<typename BaseClass, typename D, typename I = Indirectly<>>

using Extends

This typedef enables using a custom base class with the interface implementation.

Implements

template<typename D, typename I = Indirectly<>>

using Implements

This typedef provides the interface implementation.

ImplementsNonDestroyable

template<typename D, typename I = Indirectly<>>

using ImplementsNonDestroyable

This typedef provides the interface implementation for objects which should not be destroyed via FUnknown::release (like singletons).

Function Documentation

cast()

template<typename I>

IPtr< I > cast

(

Unknown *

u

)

Checks if the given Unknown can provide the specified interface and returns it in an IPtr.

Returns

an IPtr pointing to an instance of the requested interface or nullptr in case the object does not provide the interface.

getTUID()

template<typename T>

const TUID & getTUID

(

)

Returns

the TUID for an interface.
