wow, this seems like a great idea, a scoped_ptr with deleter would be v.useful. mark

I've been thinking something like (just something I hacked together just now). Not sure if there is a nicer way. #include <string> #include <cstdio> #include <iostream> template<typename T> struct DeletingDeleter { DeletingDeleter(T * p) { delete p; std::cout << "DeletingDeleter" << std::endl; } }; struct FileCloser { FileCloser(FILE * f) { std::cout << "Closing file" << std::endl; fclose(f); } }; template struct scoped_ptr { scoped_ptr():p_(0){} scoped_ptr(T * p):p_(p){} ~scoped_ptr() { Deleter d(p_); } T * get() {return p_;} // regular stuff private: T * p_; }; typedef scoped_ptr file_ptr; int main() { scoped_ptr<int> a; // maintain old interface scoped_ptr<int> b(new int(5)); file_ptr p(fopen("myfile.txt","w")); fprintf(p.get(),"Hello world!\n"); }
