I started using object_pool recently to solve a problem. I have lots of
objects being created and destroyed frequently and stored in a
collection. Every so often an event happens which triggers destroying
all the objects.
Essentially I have:
boost::object_pool<Object> m_object_pool;
std::vector m_objects;
Then I have a function
void DestroyAllObjects()
{
std::vector::iterator it, iend = m_objects.end();
for( it = m_objects.begin(); it != iend; ++it )
{
m_object_pool.destroy(*it);
}
m_objects.clear();
}
It seems like there should be a better way of doing this... i.e.
void DestroyAllObjects()
{
m_object_pool.destroy_all();
m_objects.clear();
}
Also it might be nice to iterate over all the objects in the pool (in
which case I wouldn't even need the m_objects vector.
Perhaps there is a better way to solve the problem?
Thanks,
