Detailed Description

template<class T>
class Teuchos::RCP< T >

Smart reference counting pointer class for automatic garbage collection.

For a carefully written discussion about what this class is and basic details on how to use it see the beginners guide.

Quickstart for RCP

Here we present a short, but fairly comprehensive, quick-start for the use of RCP<>. The use cases described here should cover the overwhelming majority of the use instances of RCP<> in a typical program.

The following class hierarchy will be used in the C++ examples given below.

class A { public: virtual ~A(){} virtual void f(){} };
class B1 : virtual public A {};
class B2 : virtual public A {};
class C : virtual public B1, virtual public B2 {};
class D {};
class E : public D {};

All of the following code examples used in this quickstart are assumed to be in the namespace Teuchos or have appropriate using Teuchos::... declarations. This removes the need to explicitly use Teuchos:: to qualify classes, functions and other declarations from the Teuchos namespace. Note that some of the runtime checks are denoted as "debug runtime checked" which means that checking will only be performed in a debug build (that is one where the macro TEUCHOS_DEBUG is defined at compile time).

Creation of RCP<> objects
1. Creating an RCP<> object using new
  
  RCP<C> c_ptr = rcp(new C);
2. Creating a RCP<> object equipped with a specialized deallocator function : Teuchos::DeallocFunctorDelete
  
  void someDeallocFunction(C* c_ptr);
  
  RCP<C> c_ptr = rcp(new deallocFunctorDelete<C>(someDeallocFunction),true);
3. Initializing a RCP<> object to NULL
  
  RCP<C> c_ptr;
  
  or
  
  RCP<C> c_ptr = null;
4. Initializing a RCP<> object to an object {not} allocated with new
  
  C c;
  
  RCP<C> c_ptr = rcpFromRef(c);
5. Copy constructor (implicit casting)
  
  RCP<C> c_ptr = rcp(new C); // No cast
  
  RCP<A> a_ptr = c_ptr; // Cast to base class
  
  RCP<const A> ca_ptr = a_ptr; // Cast from non-const to const
6. Representing constantness and non-constantness
  1. Non-constant pointer to non-constant object
    
    RCP<C> c_ptr;
  2. Constant pointer to non-constant object
    
    const RCP<C> c_ptr;
  3. Non-Constant pointer to constant object
    
    RCP<const C> c_ptr;
  4. Constant pointer to constant object
    
    const RCP<const C> c_ptr;
Reinitialization of RCP<> objects (using assignment operator)
1. Resetting from a raw pointer
  
  RCP<A> a_ptr;
  
  a_ptr = rcp(new C());
2. Resetting to null
  
  RCP<A> a_ptr = rcp(new C());
  
  a_ptr = null; // The C object will be deleted here
3. Assigning from a RCP<> object
  
  RCP<A> a_ptr1;
  
  RCP<A> a_ptr2 = rcp(new C());
  
  a_ptr1 = a_ptr2; // Now a_ptr1 and a_ptr2 point to same C object
Accessing the reference-counted object
1. Access to object reference (debug runtime checked) : Teuchos::RCP::operator*()
  
  C &c_ref = *c_ptr;
2. Access to object pointer (unchecked, may return NULL) : Teuchos::RCP::get()
  
  C *c_rptr = c_ptr.get();
  
  or
  
  C *c_rptr = c_ptr.getRawPtr();
  
  WARNING:: Avoid exposing raw C++ pointers!
3. Access to object pointer (debug runtime checked, will not return NULL) : Teuchos::RCP::operator*()
  
  C *c_rptr = &*c_ptr;
  
  WARNING:: Avoid exposing raw C++ pointers!
4. Access of object's member (debug runtime checked) : Teuchos::RCP::operator->()
  
  c_ptr->f();
5. Testing for non-null : Teuchos::RCP::get(), Teuchos::operator==(), Teuchos::operator!=()
  
  if (a_ptr.is_null) std::cout << "a_ptr is not null!\n";
  
  or
  
  if (a_ptr != null) std::cout << "a_ptr is not null!\n";
  
  or
6. Testing for null
  
  if (!a_ptr.is_null()) std::cout << "a_ptr is null!\n";
  
  or
  
  if (a_ptr == null) std::cout << "a_ptr is null!\n";
  
  or
  
  if (is_null(a_ptr)) std::cout << "a_ptr is null!\n";
Casting
1. Implicit casting (see copy constructor above)
  1. Using copy constructor (see above)
  2. Using conversion function
    
    RCP<C> c_ptr = rcp(new C); // No cast
    
    RCP<A> a_ptr = rcp_implicit_cast<A>(c_ptr); // To base
    
    RCP<const A> ca_ptr = rcp_implicit_cast<const A>(a_ptr);// To const
2. Casting away const : rcp_const_cast()
  
  RCP<const A> ca_ptr = rcp(new C);
  
  RCP<A> a_ptr = rcp_const_cast<A>(ca_ptr); // cast away const!
3. Static cast (no runtime check) : rcp_static_cast()
  
  RCP<D> d_ptr = rcp(new E);
  
  RCP<E> e_ptr = rcp_static_cast<E>(d_ptr); // Unchecked, unsafe?
4. Dynamic cast (runtime checked, failed cast allowed) : rcp_dynamic_cast()
  
  RCP<A> a_ptr = rcp(new C);
  
  RCP<B1> b1_ptr = rcp_dynamic_cast<B1>(a_ptr); // Checked, safe!
  
  RCP<B2> b2_ptr = rcp_dynamic_cast<B2>(b1_ptr); // Checked, safe!
  
  RCP<C> c_ptr = rcp_dynamic_cast<C>(b2_ptr); // Checked, safe!
5. Dynamic cast (runtime checked, failed cast not allowed) : rcp_dynamic_cast()
  
  RCP<A> a_ptr1 = rcp(new C);
  
  RCP<A> a_ptr2 = rcp(new A);
  
  RCP<B1> b1_ptr1 = rcp_dynamic_cast<B1>(a_ptr1, true); // Success!
  
  RCP<B1> b1_ptr2 = rcp_dynamic_cast<B1>(a_ptr2, true); // Throw std::bad_cast!
Customized deallocators
1. Creating a RCP<> object with a custom deallocator : rcp()
  
  TODO: Update this example!
2. Access customized deallocator (runtime checked, throws on failure) : Teuchos::get_dealloc()
  
  const MyCustomDealloc<C>
  
  &dealloc = get_dealloc<MyCustomDealloc<C> >(c_ptr);
3. Access optional customized deallocator : Teuchos::get_optional_dealloc()
  
  const Ptr<const MyCustomDealloc<C> > dealloc =
  
  get_optional_dealloc<MyCustomDealloc<C> >(c_ptr);
  
  if (!is_null(dealloc))
  
  std::cout << "This deallocator exits!\n";
Managing extra data
1. Adding extra data (post destruction of extra data) : Teuchos::set_extra_data()
  
  set_extra_data(rcp(new B1), "A:B1", inOutArg(a_ptr));
2. Adding extra data (pre destruction of extra data) : Teuchos::get_extra_data()
  
  set_extra_data(rcp(new B1),"A:B1", inOutArg(a_ptr), PRE_DESTORY);
3. Retrieving extra data : Teuchos::get_extra_data()
  
  get_extra_data<RCP<B1> >(a_ptr, "A:B1")->f();
4. Resetting extra data : Teuchos::get_extra_data()
  
  get_extra_data<RCP<B1> >(a_ptr, "A:B1") = rcp(new C);
5. Retrieving optional extra data : Teuchos::get_optional_extra_data()
  
  const Ptr<const RCP<B1> > b1 =
  
  get_optional_extra_data<RCP<B1> >(a_ptr, "A:B1");
  
  if (!is_null(b1))
  
  (*b1)->f();

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class T >

Teuchos::RCP< T >::RCP ( ENull null_arg = null )

inline

Initialize RCP<T> to NULL.

Postconditons:

this->get() == 0
this->strength() == RCP_STRONG
this->is_vali_ptr() == true
this->strong_count() == 0
this->weak_count() == 0
this->has_ownership() == false

This allows clients to write code like:

RCP<int> p = null;

or

RCP<int> p;

and construct to NULL

Definition at line 117 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T>

Teuchos::RCP< T >::RCP	(	T *	p,
		bool	has_ownership = `true`
	)

inlineexplicit

Construct from a raw pointer.

Note that this constructor is declared explicit so there is no implicit conversion from a raw pointer to an RCP allowed. If has_ownership==false, then no attempt to delete the object will occur.

Postconditons:

this->get() == p
this->strength() == RCP_STRONG
this->is_vali_ptr() == true
this->strong_count() == 1
this->weak_count() == 0
this->has_ownership() == has_ownership

NOTE: It is recommended that this constructor never be called directly but only through a type-specific non-member constructor function or at least through the general non-member rcp() function.

Definition at line 160 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T>

template<class Dealloc_T >

Teuchos::RCP< T >::RCP	(	T *	p,
		Dealloc_T	dealloc,
		bool	has_ownership
	)

inline

Construct from a raw pointer and a custom deallocator.

Parameters

p	[in] Pointer to the reference-counted object to be wrapped
dealloc	[in] Deallocator policy object that will be copied by value and will perform the custom deallocation of the object pointed to by `p` when the last `RCP` object goes away. See the class `DeallocDelete` for the specfication and behavior of this policy interface.

Postcondition: this->get() == p; this->strength() == RCP_STRONG; this->is_vali_ptr() == true; this->strong_count() == 1; this->weak_count() == 0; this->has_ownership() == has_ownership; get_dealloc<Delalloc_T>(*this) returns a copy of the custom deallocator object dealloc>/tt>.

Definition at line 194 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T>

Teuchos::RCP< T >::RCP ( const RCP< T > & r_ptr )

inline

Initialize from another RCP<T> object.

After construction, this and r_ptr will reference the same object.

This form of the copy constructor is required even though the below more general templated version is sufficient since some compilers will generate this function automatically which will give an incorrect implementation.

Postconditons:

this->get() == r_ptr.get()
this->strong_count() == r_ptr.strong_count()
this->has_ownership() == r_ptr.has_ownership()
If r_ptr.get() != NULL then r_ptr.strong_count() is incremented by 1

Definition at line 247 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T>

Teuchos::RCP< T >::RCP ( RCP< T > && r_ptr )

inline

Move constructor.

Postconditons:

*this is an exact copy of r_ptr before the call.
r_ptr is uninitialized

Definition at line 254 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T>

template<class T2 >

Teuchos::RCP< T >::RCP ( const RCP< T2 > & r_ptr )

inline

Initialize from another RCP<T2> object (implicit conversion only).

This function allows the implicit conversion of smart pointer objects just like with raw C++ pointers. Note that this function will only compile if the statement T1 *ptr = r_ptr.get() will compile.

Postconditons:

this->get() == r_ptr.get()
this->strong_count() == r_ptr.strong_count()
this->has_ownership() == r_ptr.has_ownership()
If r_ptr.get() != NULL then r_ptr.strong_count() is incremented by 1

Definition at line 264 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T>

template<class T2 >

Teuchos::RCP< T >::RCP	(	const RCP< T2 > &	r_ptr,
		T *	ptr
	)

inline

Aliasing constructor: Construct using the ownership of a RCP<T2> and from a raw pointer.

Constructs a RCP<T> which shares ownership information with the initial value of r_ptr, but holds an unrelated and unmanaged pointer ptr.

This constructor corresponds to the constructor template< class Y > shared_ptr( const shared_ptr<Y>& r, element_type* ptr ) noexcept; of the std::shared_ptr.

Definition at line 273 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T >

Teuchos::RCP< T >::~RCP ( )

inline

Removes a reference to a dynamically allocated object and possibly deletes the object if owned.

Deletes the object if this->has_ownership() == true and this->strong_count() == 1. If this->strong_count() == 1 but this->has_ownership() == false then the object is not deleted. If this->strong_count() > 1 then the internal reference count shared by all the other related RCP<...> objects for this shared object is deincremented by one. If this->get() == NULL then nothing happens.

Definition at line 281 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T>

Teuchos::RCP< T >::RCP	(	T *	p,
		ERCPWeakNoDealloc
	)

inlineexplicit

Construct a non-owning RCP from a raw pointer to a type that is defined.

This version avoids adding a deallocator but still requires the type to be defined since it looks up the base object's address when doing RCPNode tracing.

NOTE: It is recommended that this constructor never be called directly but only through a type-specific non-member constructor function or at least through the general non-member rcpFromRef() function.

		ERCPUndefinedWeakNoDealloc
	)

inlineexplicit

Construct a non-owning RCP from a raw pointer to a type that is not defined.

This version avoids any type of compile-time queries of the type that would fail due to the type being undefined.

NOTE: It is recommended that this constructor never be called directly but only through a type-specific non-member constructor function or at least through the general non-member rcpFromUndefRef() function.

Member Function Documentation

template<class T>

RCP< T > & Teuchos::RCP< T >::operator= ( const RCP< T > & r_ptr )

inline

Copy the pointer to the referenced object and increment the reference count.

If this->has_ownership() == true and this->strong_count() == 1 before this operation is called, then the object pointed to by this->get() will be deleted (usually using delete) prior to binding to the pointer (possibly NULL) pointed to in r_ptr. Assignment to self (i.e. this->get() == r_ptr.get()) is harmless and this function does nothing.

Postconditons:

this->get() == r_ptr.get()
this->strong_count() == r_ptr.strong_count()
this->has_ownership() == r_ptr.has_ownership()
If r_ptr.get() != NULL then r_ptr.strong_count() is incremented by 1

Provides the "strong guarantee" in a debug build!

Definition at line 287 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T>

RCP< T > & Teuchos::RCP< T >::operator= ( RCP< T > && r_ptr )

inline

Move assign.

Postconditons:

*this is an exact copy of r_ptr before the call.
r_ptr is uninitialized

Provides the "strong guarantee" in a debug build!

Definition at line 301 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T>

RCP< T > & Teuchos::RCP< T >::operator= ( ENull )

inline

Assign to null.

If this->has_ownership() == true and this->strong_count() == 1 before this operation is called, then the object pointed to by this->get() will be deleted (usually using delete) prior to binding to the pointer (possibly NULL) pointed to in r_ptr.

Postconditons:

inline

Return if the underlying object pointer is still valid or not.

The underlying object will not be valid if the strong count has gone to zero but the weak count thas not.

NOTE: Null is a valid object pointer. If you want to know if there is a non-null object and it is valid then !is_null() && is_valid_ptr() will be true.

Definition at line 429 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T >

template<class T >

void Teuchos::RCP< T >::set_has_ownership ( )

inline

Give this and other RCP<> objects ownership of the referenced object this->get().

See ~RCP() above. This function does nothing if this->get() == NULL.

Postconditions:

If this->get() == NULL then
- this->has_ownership() == false (always!).
else
- this->has_ownership() == true

Definition at line 463 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T >

bool Teuchos::RCP< T >::has_ownership ( ) const

inline

Returns true if this has ownership of object pointed to by this->get() in order to delete it.

See ~RCP() above.

Returns: If this->get() == NULL then this function always returns false. Otherwise the value returned from this function depends on which function was called most recently, if any; set_has_ownership() (true) or release() (false).

Definition at line 471 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T >

Ptr< T > Teuchos::RCP< T >::release ( )

inline

Release the ownership of the underlying dynamically allocated object.

WARNING! Never call delete rcp.release().get() as this can cause all kinds of segfaults. Instead, release your use of the shared object by simply assigning the RCP object to Teuchos::null.

This function should only be used as last result when all hell has broken loose and memory management control has broken down. This function is not to be used lightly!

After this function is called then the client is responsible for deallocating the shared object no matter how many ref_count_prt<T> objects have a reference to it. If this->get()== NULL, then this call is meaningless.

Note that this function does not have the exact same semantics as does auto_ptr<T>::release(). In auto_ptr<T>::release(), this is set to NULL while here in RCP<T>:: release() only an ownership flag is set and *this still points to the same object. It would be difficult to duplicate the behavior of auto_ptr<T>::release() for this class.

Postconditions:

this->has_ownership() == false

Returns: Returns the value of this->get()

Definition at line 479 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T2 >

bool Teuchos::RCP< T >::shares_resource ( const RCP< T2 > & r_ptr ) const

inline

Returns true if the smart pointers share the same underlying reference-counted object.

This method does more than just check if this->get() == r_ptr.get(). It also checks to see if the underlying reference counting machinary is the same.

Definition at line 524 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T >

const RCP< T > & Teuchos::RCP< T >::assert_not_null ( ) const

Definition at line 538 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

template<class T >

const RCP< T > & Teuchos::RCP< T >::assert_valid_ptr ( ) const

inline

If the object pointer is non-null, assert that it is still valid.

If is_null()==false && strong_count()==0, this will throw DanglingReferenceErorr with a great error message.

If is_null()==true, then this will not throw any exception.

In this context, null is a valid object.

Definition at line 276 of file Teuchos_PtrDecl.hpp.

template<class T >

RCP< T > rcp ( const boost::shared_ptr< T > & sptr )

If the input boost::shared_ptr already wraps a Teuchos::RCP object, then that Teuchos::RCP object will be copied and returned.

This function is not complicated, just look at its defintion below.

template<class T >

boost::shared_ptr< T > shared_pointer ( const RCP< T > & rcp )

If the input Teuchos::RCP already wraps a boost::shared_ptr object, then that boost::shared_ptr object will be copied and returned.

This function is not complicated, just look at its defintion below.

template<class T >

RCP< T > rcp	(	T *	p,
		bool	owns_mem = `true`
	)

Parameters

p	[in] Pointer to an object to be reference counted.
owns_mem	[in] If `owns_mem==true` then `delete p` will be called when the last reference to this object is removed. If `owns_mem==false` then nothing will happen to delete the the object pointed to by `p` when the last reference is removed.

Preconditions:

If owns_mem==true then p must have been created by calling new to create the object since delete p will be called eventually.

If the pointer p did not come from new then either the client should use the version of rcp() that that uses a deallocator policy object or should pass in owns_mem = false.

template<class T , class Dealloc_T >

RCP< T > rcpWithDealloc	(	T *	p,
		Dealloc_T	dealloc,
		bool	owns_mem = `true`
	)

Parameters

p	[in] Raw C++ pointer that `this` will represent.
dealloc	[in] Deallocator policy object (copied by value) that defines a function `void Dealloc_T::free(T* p)` that will free the underlying object.
owns_mem	[in] If true then `return` is allowed to delete the underlying pointer by calling `dealloc.free(p)`. when all references have been removed.

Preconditions:

The function void Dealloc_T::free(T* p) exists.

Postconditions:

return.get() == p
If p == NULL then
- return.count() == 0
- return.has_ownership() == false
else
- return.count() == 1
- return.has_ownership() == owns_mem

By default, return has ownership to delete the object pointed to by p when return is deleted (see ~RCP()). If owns_mem==true, it is vital that the address p passed in is the same address that was returned by new. With multiple inheritance this is not always the case. See the above discussion. This class is templated to accept a deallocator object that will free the pointer. The other functions use a default deallocator of type DeallocDelete which has a method DeallocDelete::free() which just calls delete p.

template<class T , class Dealloc_T >

RCP< T > rcpWithDeallocUndef	(	T *	p,
		Dealloc_T	dealloc,
		bool	owns_mem = `true`
	)

Parameters

p	[in] Raw C++ pointer that `this` will represent.
dealloc	[in] Deallocator policy object (copied by value) that defines a function `void Dealloc_T::free(T* p)` that will free the underlying object.

template<class T >

RCP< T > rcpFromRef ( T & r )

NOTE: When debug mode is turned on, in general, the type must be defined. If the type is undefined, then the function rcpFromUndefRef() should be called instead.

template<class T >

RCP< T > rcpFromUndefRef ( T & r )

NOTE: This version will not be able to use RCPNode tracing to create a weak reference to an existing RCPNode. Therefore, you should only use this version with an undefined type.

template<class T , class Embedded >

RCP< T > rcpWithEmbeddedObjPreDestroy	(	T *	p,
		const Embedded &	embedded,
		bool	owns_mem = `true`
	)

In this case the embedded object is destroyed (by setting to Embedded()) before the object at *p is destroyed.

The embedded object can be extracted using getEmbeddedObj() and getNonconstEmbeddedObject().

template<class T , class Embedded >

RCP< T > rcpWithEmbeddedObjPostDestroy	(	T *	p,
		const Embedded &	embedded,
		bool	owns_mem = `true`
	)

In this case the embedded object is destroyed (by setting to Embedded()) after the object at *p is destroyed.

The embedded object can be extracted using getEmbeddedObj() and getNonconstEmbeddedObject().

template<class T , class Embedded >

RCP< T > rcpWithEmbeddedObj	(	T *	p,
		const Embedded &	embedded,
		bool	owns_mem = `true`
	)

This function should be called when it is not important when the embedded object is destroyed (by setting to Embedded()) with respect to when *p is destroyed.

The embedded object can be extracted using getEmbeddedObj() and getNonconstEmbeddedObject().

template<class T , class ParentT >

RCP< T > rcpWithInvertedObjOwnership	(	const RCP< T > &	child,
		const RCP< ParentT > &	parent
	)

This implements the "inverted object ownership" idiom.

NOTE: The parent can be retrieved using the function getInvertedObjOwnershipParent(...).

template<class T >

RCP< T > rcpCloneNode ( const RCP< T > & p )

The purpose of this function is to create a new "handle" to the underlying memory with its own seprate reference count. The new RCP object will have a new RCPNodeTmpl object that has a copy of the input RCP object embedded in it. This maintains the correct reference counting behaviors but now gives a private count. One would want to use rcpCloneNode(...) whenever it is important to keep a private reference count which is needed for some types of use cases.

RCP< T2 > rcp_implicit_cast ( const RCP< T1 > & p1 )

The function will compile only if (T2* p2 = p1.get();) compiles.

This is to be used for conversions up an inheritance hierarchy and from non-const to const and any other standard implicit pointer conversions allowed by C++.

template<class T2 , class T1 >

RCP< T2 > rcp_static_cast ( const RCP< T1 > & p1 )

The function will compile only if (static_cast<T2*>(p1.get());) compiles.

This can safely be used for conversion down an inheritance hierarchy with polymorphic types only if dynamic_cast<T2>(p1.get()) == static_cast<T2>(p1.get()). If not then you have to use rcp_dynamic_cast<T2>(p1).

template<class T2 , class T1 >

RCP< T2 > rcp_const_cast ( const RCP< T1 > & p1 )

This function will compile only if (const_cast<T2*>(p1.get());) compiles.

template<class T2 , class T1 >

RCP< T2 > rcp_dynamic_cast	(	const RCP< T1 > &	p1,
		bool	throw_on_fail = `false`
	)

Parameters

p1	[in] The smart pointer casting from
throw_on_fail	[in] If `true` then if the cast fails (for `p1.get()!=NULL) then a std::bad_cast std::exception is thrown with a very informative error message.`

Postconditions:

If ( p1.get()!=NULL && throw_on_fail==true && dynamic_cast<T2*>(p1.get())==NULL ) == true then an std::bad_cast std::exception is thrown with a very informative error message.
If ( p1.get()!=NULL && dynamic_cast<T2*>(p1.get())!=NULL ) == true then return.get() == dynamic_cast<T2*>(p1.get()).
If ( p1.get()!=NULL && throw_on_fail==false && dynamic_cast<T2*>(p1.get())==NULL ) == true then return.get() == NULL.
If ( p1.get()==NULL ) == true then return.get() == NULL.

This function will compile only if (dynamic_cast<T2*>(p1.get());) compiles.

void set_extra_data	(	const T1 &	extra_data,
		const std::string &	name,
		const Ptr< RCP< T2 > > &	p,
		EPrePostDestruction	destroy_when = `POST_DESTROY`,
		bool	force_unique = `true`
	)

Parameters

extra_data	[in] Data object that will be set (copied)
name	[in] The name given to the extra data. The value of `name` together with the data type `T1` of the extra data must be unique from any other such data or the other data will be overwritten.
p	[out] On output, will be updated with the input `extra_data`
destroy_when	[in] Determines when `extra_data` will be destroyed in relation to the underlying reference-counted object. If `destroy_when==PRE_DESTROY` then `extra_data` will be deleted before the underlying reference-counted object. If `destroy_when==POST_DESTROY` (the default) then `extra_data` will be deleted after the underlying reference-counted object.
force_unique	[in] Determines if this type and name pair must be unique in which case if an object with this same type and name already exists, then an std::exception will be thrown. The default is `true` for safety.

If there is a call to this function with the same type of extra data T1 and same arguments p and name has already been made, then the current piece of extra data already set will be overwritten with extra_data. However, if the type of the extra data T1 is different, then the extra data can be added and not overwrite existing extra data. This means that extra data is keyed on both the type and name. This helps to minimize the chance that clients will unexpectedly overwrite data by accident.

When the last RefcountPtr object is removed and the reference-count node is deleted, then objects are deleted in the following order: (1) All of the extra data that where added with destroy_when==PRE_DESTROY are first, (2) then the underlying reference-counted object is deleted, and (3) the rest of the extra data that was added with destroy_when==PRE_DESTROY is then deleted. The order in which the objects are destroyed is not guaranteed. Therefore, clients should be careful not to add extra data that has deletion dependancies (instead consider using nested RCP objects as extra data which will guarantee the order of deletion).

Preconditions:

p->get() != NULL (throws NullReferenceError)
If this function has already been called with the same template type T1 for extra_data and the same std::string name and force_unique==true, then an std::invalid_argument std::exception will be thrown.

Note, this function is made a non-member function to be consistent with the non-member get_extra_data() functions.
