The
SharedRef<T>
struct allows reference counting objects.UniqueRef<T>
ensures that an object always has a single owner and is disposed when it's not used anymore.These types must never be copied and must always be disposed of properly. The
NonCopyableDisposable
attribute is used to mark these types.A non-copyable-disposable (NCD) type has a few rules to ensure it's used properly:
using
variable..Set()
should be used instead.return
statement directly returns anew
NCD instance or if it's invoking another function that returns an NCD.
