Detailed Description

template<class T>
struct utility::unique::UniqueMap< T >

Canonical type map.

This structure is a helper for the get operator, that retains associations between static types (represented by the std::type_info structure) and a hash map of dynamic values.

This structure is used for dynamic type instances canonicalization, i.e. storage and retrieval of unique instances of structural elements in Vaucanson.

Constructor for the class. It is protected so that no secondary instances may be created. Definition at line 121 of file unique.hxx.

~UniqueMap (   )  [protected]

Destructor for the class. This destructor actually destroys all stored canonical instances. Any further reference to the canonical values is invalid. Definition at line 126 of file unique.hxx. References UniqueMap::map_.
