2020-01-23AK: Let's call decrementing reference counts "unref" instead of "deref"Andreas Kling
It always bothered me that we're using the overloaded "dereference" term for this. Let's call it "unreference" instead. :^)
2020-01-18Meta: Add license header to source filesAndreas Kling
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a comment block to the top of every source file. For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright holder instead. Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
2019-08-14AK: Make it possible to use HashMap<K, NonnullOwnPtr>::get()Andreas Kling
Add the concept of a PeekType to Traits<T>. This is the type we'll return (wrapped in an Optional) from HashMap::get(). The PeekType for OwnPtr<T> and NonnullOwnPtr<T> is const T*, which means that HashMap::get() will return an Optional<const T*> for maps-of-those.
2019-08-03AK: Remove two redundant RefPtr constructors.Andreas Kling
We already have constructors for "const T*" and "const T&" so we don't need to have non-const variants.
2019-08-02AK: Simplify RefPtr and NonnullRefPtr's leak_ref() functionsAndreas Kling
Use AK::exchange() to switch out the internal storage. Also mark these functions with [[nodiscard]] to provoke an compile-time error if they are called without using the return value.
2019-08-02AK: Add anti-null assertions in RefPtr.Andreas Kling
This gives us better error messages when dereferencing null RefPtrs.
2019-08-02AK: Fix ref leaks in RefPtr assignment operators.Andreas Kling
Many of the RefPtr assignment operators would cause ref leaks when we call them to assign a pointer that's already the one kept.
2019-07-21AK: RefPtr::operator=(RefPtr<U>&&) needs to cast the incoming pointer.Andreas Kling
Otherwise it's not possible to assign a RefPtr<Derived>&& to a RefPtr<Base>.
2019-07-11AK: Delete bad pointer assignment operators and constructors.Andreas Kling
We shouldn't allow constructing e.g an OwnPtr from a RefPtr, and similar conversions. Instead just delete those functions so the compiler whines loudly if you try to use them. This patch also deletes constructing OwnPtr from a WeakPtr, even though that *may* be a valid thing to do, it's sufficiently weird that we can make the client jump through some hoops if he really wants it. :^)
2019-07-11AK: Remove copy_ref().Andreas Kling
This patch removes copy_ref() from RefPtr and NonnullRefPtr. This means that it's now okay to simply copy these smart pointers instead: - RefPtr = RefPtr // Okay! - RefPtr = NonnullRefPtr // Okay! - NonnullRefPtr = NonnullRefPtr // Okay! - NonnullRefPtr = RefPtr // Not okay, since RefPtr can be null.
2019-07-11AK: Remove use of copy_ref().Andreas Kling
2019-07-11AK: Make it more more pleasant to copy RefPtr's.Andreas Kling
I had a silly ambition that we would avoid unnecessary ref count churn by forcing explicit use of "copy_ref()" wherever a copy was actually needed. This was making RefPtr a bit clunky to work with, for no real benefit. This patch adds the missing copy construction/assignment stuff to RefPtr.
2019-07-11AK: Remove weird RefPtr(RefPtr&) constructor.Andreas Kling
2019-07-04AK: Move some of LogStream out of line & add overloads for smart pointers.Andreas Kling
2019-06-21AK: Rename RetainPtr.h => RefPtr.h, Retained.h => NonnullRefPtr.h.Andreas Kling
