Greeting everyone,
It seems placement operator new (size_t, ...) would extend a lot garbage
collection possibilities. Why don't we define a set of rules for each tag
this overloaded placed operator would use:
shared_ptr<int>(new int());
GC type defined at run-time:
shared_ptr<int>(new (gc) int()); // Add pointer to a list
shared_ptr<int>(new (rc) int()); // Add counter + pointer to a list
shared_ptr<int>(new (os) int()); // Add owner to a list
GC type defined at compile-time:
placed_ptr<int>(new (po) int()); // Reserve an extra integer to the
allocated block
shared_ptr<> would be more portable while placed_ptr<> would require a
placed object with operator new (size_t, po).
Regards,
Philippe A. Bouchard
