Hello,
I'm using boost::shared_ptr for using a C pointer. The ctor and all functions are called without any problem, but I have got a problem with the dtor. I need to call a C function on the dtor eg
cptr_close( mypointer )
How can I this used with boost::shared_ptr? I need the cptr_close call on the pointer member of the dtor on the shared_ptr.
Thanks a lot
Phil

I would initialize the shared pointer like so: boost::shared_ptr <MyType> ptr; MyType *temp_ptr = cptr_open(); //Use a temporary pointer to avoid initializing the shared pointer with null. if (temp_ptr) ptr.reset(temp_ptr, &cptr_close); //Now discard temp_ptr
