Detailed Description

Describes the behavior and capabilities of an object category.

Todo

Replace methods with typed callback fields: OpenProcedure, CloseProcedure, DeleteProcedure, and ParseProcedure. Store a const char* name label alongside each callback so that logs and assertions can identify which type fired without having to dereference a pointer. IdentityManager::CanOpen / CanClose then become thin dispatchers that invoke the corresponding procedure, or are absorbed into HandlerManager directly. See docs/reactos-ob-comparison.md §2.

Todo

Add an exclusive flag for mutable reference objects (branch HEADs, namespace entries). Non-exclusive objects — immutable snapshots, transactions — must skip contention checks entirely. See docs/reactos-ob-comparison.md §6.

Member Data Documentation

disposable

bool nt::ObjectManager::object_type::disposable

True when the object is not durable.

For example: TRANSACTION.

exclusive

bool nt::ObjectManager::object_type::exclusive = false

When true, only one write-mode handle may be open at a time.

Applies to mutable reference states such as branch HEADs. Immutable snapshot objects must leave this false.

Todo

Wire into LifecycleManager::Contention.

methods

std::set<METHOD> nt::ObjectManager::object_type::methods

Methods supported by this object type.

Todo

Replace with typed callback function pointers. See class-level todo.
