Sample text

Bear in mind that C++ will interpret any nonzero value as true. For this reason, you should refrain from making direct comparisons with ETrue. • Each TBool represents 32 bits, which may be quite wasteful of memory in classes with a number of flags representing state or settings. 1 Note that these are typedefs and should not be confused with the Symbian OS TRealX class, which describes an extended 64-bit precision real value. T CLASSES 3 You may wish to use a bitfield rather than a number of booleans, given that the 32 bits of a single TBool could hold 32 boolean values in a bitfield.

Stack objects that own a resource which must be deallocated, or otherwise ”released” as part of destruction, would leak that resource in the event of a leave. Classes which are intended to be used on the stack must not need a destructor. This is the reason why Symbian OS has a class naming convention which clearly defines the allowed usage of a class (described in Chapter 1). The only classes which may be instantiated and used safely on the stack are T classes, which the Symbian OS naming convention dictates must not have a destructor, and R classes, which do not have a destructor but use Close(), or a similar method, to free the associated resource.
