Summary:
The effects of the decrement_count() accessor for blocks are described
as "Decrease the object’s use count. If the count becomes zero, the
block deallocates itself."This is not always possible. Consider, for instance, this simple code:
Dense<...> block(...);
block.decrement_count();Since block is created on the stack, it cannot deallocate itself.
Similar issues will occur with blocks created using placement-new into
existing allocated memory.At minimum, this should be addressed by a clause stating that the
object's use-count shall not be decremented to zero (or allowed to
become decremented to zero) except for blocks that have been created
using "new". -
