Why do we store the instantiated
client_data
ptr in this vector?There was a problem hiding this comment.

If we didn't do this, then we could conceivably get the same address over and over again. Consider the case where we have the pointer 0x1 in
deleted_clients
. The first call tonew ClientData
might return 0x1. At that point, we'd detect that this is indeleted_clients
, and loop around again. But right before we make the second call tonew ClientData
, we drop the reference to the old one, at which point it may be freed. At that point the allocator might decide to give us address 0x1 again, and we'd never make any progress here.By holding all of the shared_ptr in a vector like this, we guarantee that the allocator will give us a new address. And then at the end of the function, when
std::vector
goes out of scope, we'll free all of them.
