CPP13 — Memory management of recursive value

Open Closed All
  • Key: CPP13-14
  • Legacy Issue Number: 2309
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    Summary: Section 20.21, "Argument Passing Considerations," says that for valuetypes:
    "The caller shall eventually invoked _remove_ref on the valuetype
    instance it receives back as either an inout, out, or return value."

    For memory management purposes, this is not sufficient in some cases.
