Detailed Description

template<class X>
struct iCustomDataType< X >

The base class for data types with Alloc() and Free() for use in libraries. Pass the public data type as template parameter.

Note

The advantage of this class is to not need to provide library functions for Alloc() and Free(), as the internal and external type will share this functionality.

static void Free ( X *&  data )

static

Destructs X data types allocated with Alloc(). Use AutoAlloc to automate the allocation and destruction based on scope.
