I have a base class that basically wraps up attaching a class to a arbitrary windows handle (e.g, HWND, HFONT), and uses a policy class to attach/detach and destroy:
// class SmartHandle
template<typename THANDLE, class TWRAPPER, class TPOLICY>
class SmartHandle : boost::noncopyable
{
private:
TPOLICY* m_pPolicy; // Policy
bool m_bIsTemporary; // Is this a temporary window?
SmartHandle(); // no default ctor
SmartHandle(const SmartHandle<THANDLE, TWRAPPER, TPOLICY>&); // no cctor
protected:
THANDLE m_hHandle; // Handle to the underlying window
TPOLICY& policy() {return(*m_pPolicy);};
// ctor that attaches but is temporary
SmartHandle(const THANDLE& _handle, bool _temporary) : m_hHandle(_handle)
, m_bIsTemporary(_temporary)
{
m_pPolicy = new TPOLICY(reinterpret_cast<TWRAPPER&>(*this));
if(_handle)
m_pPolicy->attach(_handle);
}; // eo ctor
// move ctor
SmartHandle(SmartHandle<THANDLE, TWRAPPER, TPOLICY>&& _rhs) : m_hHandle(_rhs.m_hHandle)
, m_bIsTemporary(_rhs.m_bIsTemporary)
{
m_pPolicy = new TPOLICY(reinterpret_cast<TWRAPPER&>(*this));
m_pPolicy->attach(m_hHandle);
const_cast<SmartHandle&>(_rhs).m_hHandle = NULL;
}; // eo mtor
// dtor
virtual ~SmartHandle()
{
if(m_hHandle)
{
m_pPolicy->detach(m_hHandle);
if(!m_bIsTemporary)
m_pPolicy->destroy(m_hHandle);
m_hHandle = NULL;
};
delete(m_pPolicy);
m_pPolicy = NULL;
}; // eo dtor
Note that I've declared the copy constructor private (with no implementation) as I do not want the class to be copied, but a move is allowed.
