Detailed Description

template<typename ebmltype_t, typename ebmlinst_t, typename typebase_t = ebmlElementType>
class ebml::ebmlTypeCRTP< ebmltype_t, ebmlinst_t, typebase_t >

CRTP template for EBML Element Type objects.

This template implements the Curiously Recurring Template Pattern (CRTP) to enhance EBML element type classes. By wrapping their decode and cdecode functions, it provides type-safe pointer conversions, eliminating the need for manual recasting.

Benefits and Design Rationale

By inheriting from ebmlTypeCRTP, derived EBML element type classes receive:

Type-safe instance creation through operator()(Args&&...)
Automatic conversion of pointer types in decoding functions, returning:
ebml::ptr<ebmlinst_t> for mutable instances
ebml::ptr<const ebmlinst_t> for const instances

See also: Using the CRTP Mixins for detailed usage instructions.; ebml::ebmlElementCRTP<ebmltype_t, ebmlinst_t, instbase_t>; ebml::ebmlElementType

Template Parameters

ebmltype_t	The concrete element type class using this CRTP mixin.
ebmlinst_t	The associated concrete element instance class.
typebase_t	The base element type class (default is `ebml::ebmlElementType`).
