Documentation

A smart pointer for an event list. When copying an event list smart pointer, a new event list is created which is an exact copy of the original.

explicit ChainPtr(Chain* ptr = 0)

Creates a pointer to an event list. The event list gets adopted.

ChainPtr(const Chain& eventchain)

Creates a new copy of the event. The event is not adopted.

ChainPtr(const ChainPtr& ptr)

Copies an event list.

~ChainPtr()

Destructs the event list.

inline ChainPtr& operator= (const ChainPtr& ptr)

Assignment. Makes a new pointer with a true copy.

bool operator== (const ChainPtr& ptr) const

Equality. Compares the pointers (needed by CINT).

bool operator< (const ChainPtr& ptr) const

Smaller. Compares the pointers (needed by CINT).

Chain* Get()

Get a pointer to the event.

const Chain* Get() const

Get a pointer to the event.

Chain& operator*()

Dereference operator.

const Chain& operator*() const

Dereference operator.

Chain* operator->()

Member access oprator.

const Chain* operator->() const

Member access oprator.

Chain* Release()

Release the event.

void Reset(Chain* ptr = 0)

Resets the event. The new event gets adopted.

void Reset(const Chain& eventchain)

Resets the event. The new event is copied.

void Swap(ChainPtr& ptr)

Swap the pointers.

This class has no child classes.
