Thank you very much! And the last question:
Is it guaranteed an all compilers, that:
1). destructor for said rvalue is called only once.
2). function taking auto ref parameter gets that exact (memory-wise)
rvalue, for example:

struct S {}

S produce() { return S(); }

consume(produce());

void consume(auto ref S s)
{
  // s passed by value, but is exactly that struct returned by produce,
as if it
  // was RVO'd inside consume's stack frame.
  // and S destructor called only once on consume's scope escape?
}


I'm not sure whether it's RVO or moving in what condition, but yes, 
there will be no copy. You will get the bit representation of the 
constructed object.


And yes, there should be one destructor, which may be a no-op if you 
grab its resource and set it to null.

To be complete, 'auto ref' passes lvalues by reference and rvalues by 
value, which you can detect with __traits(isRef):


struct S{
}

void foo()(auto ref S s) {
static if (__traits(isRef, s)) {
pragma(msg, "lvalue");
} else {
pragma(msg, "rvalue");

destcalls - number of times UniquePtr destructor was called
deallocs - number of times internal pointer was freed.

unittest
{
deallocs = destcalls = 0;

class A {}
class B: A {}

{
UniquePtr!B b = UniquePtr!B.make();
assert(b.owner);
{
UniquePtr!A a = b;

i added this static variable:

static int destcalls = 0;

changed constructor to:

this(DT)(scope auto ref UniquePtr!DT rhs)
{
// here rhs releases pointer
pragma(msg, typeof(rhs));
}

wich prints "UniquePtr!(B)" on my machine,
and destructor:

~this() { destcalls++; }

Following code compiles and runs ok:

class A {}
class B: A {}
UniquePtr!A a = UniquePtr!A.make();
assert(destcalls == 0);
UniquePtr!A b = UniquePtr!B.make();
assert(destcalls == 1);

Destructor is called for the result of "UniquePtr!B.make();", and 
if it actually was passed by value (wich is indicated by pragma's 
output), b's internal pointer would refer to freed heap block.

(Going pedantic, you mean "struct constructor templates" or "templated 
struct constructors".)


No time to think about the rest of the design but just to get the code 
compiled, replace 'ref' with 'auto ref' like so:

struct template constructors

2017-06-22 Thread Boris-Barboris via Digitalmars-d-learn

Hi

https://dpaste.dzfl.pl/0def4e286564

Is there a cleaner way to go than the one on the line 26? And why 
is the constructor


/d475/f781.d(37): f781.UniquePtr!(A).UniquePtr.__ctor(DT)(ref 
scope UniquePtr!DT rhs)


unfit for line 51?
Is it because the expression " = UniquePtr!B.make()" cannot be 
interpreted as "scope ref"? It must release ownership of a 
pointer it holds, and looks like it cannot do it in this form.
