using namespace ::com::sun::star::uno;
{
// refcount of pSimpleUnoObject is zero OWeakObject *pSimpleUnoObject = new ::cppu::OWeakObject();
// ctor calls acquire, increases refcount Reference< XInterface > reference( (XInterface *) pSimpleUnoObject );
// destructor of reference calls release, refcount drops to zero, // release does a delete this, the object is destroyed;
} cppu::OWeakObject is a very simple uno-object, that is often used as a base class for other UNO-objects, as explained below. Here it is only important to know, that it correctly implements XInterface. The above code has no resource leak, it is perfectly OK (though certainly not very useful).
