Member Function Documentation

◆ _GetRealClass()

DesignPatternExamples_cpp::IWorkByProxy * _GetRealClass ( )

inlineprivate

Helper method to retrieve the one and only instance of the real class. This hides the details of instantiating the real class.

Returns: A single instance of the real class represented by the IWorkByProxy interface.

Definition at line 67 of file Proxy_Class.cpp.

References Proxy_Class::_realClassInstance.

◆ DoWork()

std::string DoWork ( std::string someArgument )

inlinevirtual

Do some work on a std::string.

Parameters

someArgument A std::string to work on.

Returns: Returns a new std::string.

The real class this proxy represents is not instantiated until this method is called even though the proxy class has been instantiated. When this method is called for the first time, the real class is instantiated, incurring a performance penalty only on the first call.

Implements IWorkByProxy.
