TypedContext< CX > Class Template Reference

#include "lib/typed-counter.hpp"

Description

template<class CX>
class lib::TypedContext< CX >

Provide type-IDs for a specific context.

This facility allows to access a numeric ID for each given distinct type. Type-IDs may be used e.g. for dispatcher tables or for custom allocators. The type-IDs generated here are not completely global though. Rather, they are tied to a specific type context, e.g. a class implementing a custom allocator. These typed contexts are considered to be orthogonal and independent of each other.

Remarks
2023: allocation of global ID counters are protected by double-checked locking with mutex, which is deemed adequate.
