PyROOT::PyObjRefCounter Class Reference

A PyObject wrapper to track reference counting of external objects.

This wrapper can be useful in shared ownership scenarios when a C++ object is created on the Python side and there is no easy way to track its ownership on the C++ side. If multiple instances of this class are given the same Python proxy, they will increase/decrease its reference counting following Python rules and ensure proper destruction of the underlying C++ object when no other Python objects are referencing it.
