Detailed Description

Base class for objects with auto-disconnection.

trackable must be inherited when objects shall automatically invalidate slots referring to them on destruction. A slot built from a member function of a trackable derived type installs a callback that is invoked when the trackable object is destroyed or overwritten.

add_destroy_notify_callback() and remove_destroy_notify_callback() can be used to manually install and remove callbacks when notification of the object dying is needed.

notify_callbacks() invokes and removes all previously installed callbacks and can therefore be used to disconnect from all signals.

Note that there is no virtual destructor. Don't use trackable* as pointer type for managing your data or the destructors of your derived types won't be called when deleting your objects.

Member Function Documentation

void sigc::trackable::add_destroy_notify_callback ( notifiable data,
func_destroy_notify  func 
) const

Add a callback that is executed (notified) when the trackable object is detroyed.

Parameters
dataPassed into func upon notification.
funcCallback executed upon destruction of the object.
void sigc::trackable::notify_callbacks ( )

Execute and remove all previously installed callbacks.

trackable& sigc::trackable::operator= ( const trackable src)
trackable& sigc::trackable::operator= ( trackable&&  src)
noexcept
void sigc::trackable::remove_destroy_notify_callback ( notifiable data) const

Remove a callback previously installed with add_destroy_notify_callback().

The callback is not executed.

Parameters
dataParameter passed into previous call to add_destroy_notify_callback().
