#include <itkObjectStore.h>

Detailed Description

template<typename TObjectType>
class itk::ObjectStore< TObjectType >

A specialized memory management object for allocating and destroying contiguous blocks of objects.

ObjectStore implements a dynamically sizeable free memory store, from which instantiated objects can be borrowed and returned without always invoking calls to new/delete. This type of memory management is useful in situations where calls to new/delete may be expensive, such as a multithreaded environment to avoid the heap contention problem.

ObjectStore is designed to grow dynamically. Shrinking is a more difficult problem and is only done if it will not invalidate any pointers that have been "lent" to a calling application.

This implementation uses a very simple, list-based scheme to manage pointers that have been borrowed and returned. Memory overhead incurred is one pointer per object allocated. Because of this overhead, ObjectStore is not efficient for use with small objects such as native types.

Important notes on thread-safety: This object is thread-safe in the same sense that STL defines thread-safety: simultaneous operations on distinct containers are safe. It is the user's responsibility to apply appropriate mutex locks if the same container is used across multiple threads. One (or more) ObjectStore's can be safely be created for each thread – and may even be more efficient in terms of memory use than sharing a single ObjectStore across threads. Calls to new and delete have been placed in critical sections in case a compiler's implementation of new/delete is not thread-safe.

Warning
For efficiency reasons, the ObjectStore does not guard against the same pointer being Returned() more than once. Doing this could result in serious problems.
