Constructor Details

#initialize(pointer, method) ⇒ self #initialize(pointer, proc) ⇒ self #initialize(pointer) {|p| ... } ⇒ self #initialize(pointer) ⇒ self

Note:

The safest, and therefore preferred, calling idiom is to pass a Method as the second parameter. Example usage:

class PointerHelper
  def self.release(pointer)
    ...
  end
end

p = AutoPointer.new(other_pointer, PointerHelper.method(:release))

The above code will cause PointerHelper#release to be invoked at GC time.

Note:

The last calling idiom (only one parameter) is generally only going to be useful if you subclass FFI::AutoPointer, and override #release, which by default does nothing.

Returns a new instance of AutoPointer.

Overloads:

  • #initialize(pointer, method) ⇒ self

    The passed Method will be invoked at GC time.

    Parameters:

  • #initialize(pointer, proc) ⇒ self
    Note:

    WARNING: passing a proc may cause your pointer to never be GC’d, unless you’re careful to avoid trapping a reference to the pointer in the proc. See the test specs for examples.

    The passed Proc will be invoked at GC time (SEE WARNING BELOW!)

    Parameters:

  • #initialize(pointer) {|p| ... } ⇒ self
    Note:

    WARNING: passing a block will cause your pointer to never be GC’d. This is bad.

    The passed block will be invoked at GC time.

    Parameters:

    Yield Parameters:

    • p (Pointer) —

      pointer passed to the block

  • #initialize(pointer) ⇒ self

    The pointer’s release() class method will be invoked at GC time.

    Parameters:

Raises:

  • (TypeError)
