It works by creating a single shared reference counted object + * (WeakReference) that each WeakPtr will access 'Foo' through. This lets 'Foo' + * clear the pointer in the WeakReference without having to know about all of + * the WeakPtrs to it and allows the WeakReference to live beyond the lifetime + * of 'Foo'. + * + * PLEASE NOTE: This weak pointer implementation is not thread-safe. + * + * The overhead of WeakPtr is that accesses to 'Foo' becomes an additional + * dereference, and an additional heap allocated pointer sized object shared + * between all of the WeakPtrs. + * + * Example of usage: + * + * // To have a class C support weak pointers, inherit from + * // SupportsWeakPtr + * class C : public SupportsWeakPtr + * { + * public: + * int mNum; + * void act(); + * }; + * + * C* ptr = new C(); + * + * // Get weak pointers to ptr. The first time a weak pointer + * // is obtained, a reference counted WeakReference object is created that + * // can live beyond the lifetime of 'ptr'. The WeakReference + * // object will be notified of 'ptr's destruction. + * WeakPtr<C> weak = ptr; + * WeakPtr<C> other = ptr; + * + * // Test a weak pointer for validity before using it. + * if (weak) { + * weak->mNum = 17; + * weak->act(); + * } + * + * // Destroying the underlying object clears weak pointers to it. + * delete ptr; + * + * MOZ_ASSERT(!weak, "Deleting |ptr| clears weak pointers to it."); + * MOZ_ASSERT(!other, "Deleting |ptr| clears all weak pointers to it."); + * + * WeakPtr is typesafe and may be used with any class. It is not required that + * the class be reference-counted or allocated in any particular way. + * + * The API was loosely inspired by Chromium's weak_ptr.h: + * http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/src/base/memory/weak_ptr.h + * + * Note that multiple base classes inheriting from SupportsWeakPtr is not + * currently supported. We could support it if needed though. + * + * For Gecko-internal usage there is also MainThreadWeakPtr<T>, a version of + * WeakPtr that can be destroyed on any thread, but whose release gets proxied + * to the main thread. This is a similar API to nsMainThreadPtrHandle, but + * without keeping a strong reference to the main-thread object. Said WeakPtr + * can't be accessed from any other thread that isn't the main thread. + */ + +#ifndef mozilla_WeakPtr_h +#define mozilla_WeakPtr_h + +#include "mozilla/ArrayUtils.h" +#include "mozilla/Assertions.h" +#include "mozilla/Attributes.h" +#include "mozilla/Maybe.h" +#include "mozilla/RefCounted.h" +#include "mozilla/RefPtr.h" + +#include <string.h> +#include <type_traits> + +#if defined(MOZILLA_INTERNAL_API) +// For thread safety checking. +# include "nsISupportsImpl.h" +// For main thread destructor behavior. +# include "nsProxyRelease.h" +#endif + +#if defined(MOZILLA_INTERNAL_API) && \ + defined(MOZ_THREAD_SAFETY_OWNERSHIP_CHECKS_SUPPORTED) + +// Weak referencing is not implemented as thread safe.
