\section{\class{wxWeakRefDynamic<T>}}\label{wxweakrefdynamic}
|
||||
|
||||
wxWeakRefDynamic<T> is a template class for weak references that is used in
|
||||
the same way as wxWeakRef<T>. The only difference is that wxWeakRefDynamic
|
||||
defaults to using \texttt{dynamic\_cast<>} for establishing the object
|
||||
reference (while wxWeakRef defaults to \texttt{static\_cast<>}).
|
||||
|
||||
So, wxWeakRef will detect a type mismatch during compile time and will
|
||||
have a little better run-time performance. The role of wxWeakRefDynamic
|
||||
is to handle objects which derived type one does not know.
|
||||
|
||||
\textbf{Note:} wxWeakRef<T> selects an implementation based on the static type
|
||||
of T. If T does not have wxTrackable statically, it defaults to to a mixed-
|
||||
mode operation, where it uses \texttt{dynamic\_cast<>} as the last measure (if
|
||||
available from the compiler and enabled when building wxWidgets).
|
||||
|
||||
For general cases, wxWeakRef<T> is the better choice.
