Base Class For Ref-Counted Classes?

[acbell]

Hi,

Is there a base class that I can inherit from (C++) which will provide the necessary stuff to use IceUtil::Handle (incRef, decRef, the ref count itself and such) , or should I just create a dummy slice object and inherit from that?

Thanks,

[acbell]

Sorry,

I posted too soon. I see in the header file it lists:

IceUtil::GCShared, IceUtil::Shared, or IceUtil::SimpleShared

as potential base classes.

Thanks,

You should use IceUtil::Shared. IceUtil::SimpleShared is not thread safe. IceUtil::GCShared is for our garbage collector, which only works together with our generated code.
