if someone is doing a shallow copy of this object, I want to make sure the new copy has their own lock and a retain count that is reset

Member Function Documentation

release()

void Object::release ( Object * obj )

static

decrements retain count by 1

if retain count reaches 0, this function will delete obj. Using obj after will incur undefined behavior

retain()

void Object::retain ( Object * obj )

static

increments retain count by 1

retainCount() [1/2]

int Object::retainCount ( Object & obj )

static

Here is the call graph for this function:
