Detailed Description

template<typename _Tp>
class cv::Ptr< _Tp >

Smart pointer to dynamically allocated objects.

This is template pointer-wrapping class that stores the associated reference counter along with the object pointer. The class is similar to std::smart_ptr<> from the recent addons to the C++ standard, but is shorter to write :) and self-contained (i.e. does add any dependency on the compiler or an external library).

Basically, you can use "Ptr<MyObjectType> ptr" (or faster "const Ptr<MyObjectType>& ptr" for read-only access) everywhere instead of "MyObjectType* ptr", where MyObjectType is some C structure or a C++ class. To make it all work, you need to specialize Ptr<>::delete_obj(), like:

template<> void Ptr<MyObjectType>::delete_obj() { call_destructor_func(obj); }
Note
{if MyObjectType is a C++ class with a destructor, you do not need to specialize delete_obj(), since the default implementation calls "delete obj;"}
{Another good property of the class is that the operations on the reference counter are atomic, i.e. it is safe to use the class in multi-threaded applications}
