Only_ptr: : release()调用析构函数吗?

密码正确吗?

auto v =  make_unique<int>(12);
v.release();     // is this possible?

它是否等价于原始指针的 delete

release will leak your raw pointer since you don't assign it to anything.

It is meant to be used for something like

int* x = v.release();

Which means v is no longer managing the lifetime of that pointer, it is delegating the raw pointer ownership to x. If you just release without assigning to anything, you leak the raw pointer.

No, the code causes a memory leak. release is used to release ownership of the managed object without deleting it:

auto v = make_unique<int>(12);  // manages the object
int * raw = v.release();        // pointer to no-longer-managed object
delete raw;                     // needs manual deletion

Don't do this unless you have a good reason to juggle raw memory without a safety net.

To delete the object, use reset.

auto v = make_unique<int>(12);  // manages the object
v.reset();                      // delete the object, leaving v empty

Is this code correct?

It is not, and will leak.

release() just lets go of the memory ownership that this unique_ptr held until it was called, and returns a pointer that the caller now is responsible for, including having to manually delete it.

If you don't assign the pointer returned by release(), you'll just have a leak.

An explicit delete for a unique_ptr would be reset(). But do remember that unique_ptr are there so that you don't have to manage directly the memory they hold. That is, you should know that a unique_ptr will safely delete its underlying raw pointer once it goes out of scope.

So you should have a very good reason to perform manual memory management on an automatic memory management object.

Is this code correct?

No. Use std::unique_ptr<>::reset() to delete the internal raw pointer:

auto v =  std::make_unique<int>(12);
v.reset(); // deletes the raw pointer

After that is done, std::unique_ptr<>::get() will return nullptr (unless you provided a non-nullptr parameter to std::unique_ptr<>::reset()).

it may be a bit tricky for arbitrary types:

  unique_ptr<Foo> v = get_me_some_foo();  // manages the object
Foo * raw = v.release();        // pointer to no-longer-managed object
delete raw;

is almost correct.

  unique_ptr<Foo> v = get_me_some_foo();  // manages the object
Foo * ptr = v.release();        // pointer to no-longer-managed object
v.get_deleter() ( ptr );

this one would be correct in all situation; there may be a custom deleter defined on type Foo, but using the deleter returned by the unique_ptr object is good for all cases.
