Detailed Description

template<class T>
struct Steinberg::FDeleter< T >

Template definition for classes that help guarding against memory leaks.

A stack allocated object of this type automatically deletes an at construction time passed dynamically allocated single object when it reaches the end of its scope.

Intended usage:

{
    int* pointerToInt = new int;
    Steinberg::FDeleter<int> deleter (pointerToInt);
 
    // Do something with the variable behind pointerToInt.
 
} // No memory leak here, destructor of deleter cleans up the integer.
