<hr><a name="_details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
There are some types of m17n objects that are managed by their reference count. Those objects are called <em>managed</em> <em>objects</em>. When created, the reference count of a managed object is initialized to one. The <a class="el" href="group__m17nObject.html#ga1">m17n_object_ref()</a> function increments the reference count of a managed object by one, and the <a class="el" href="group__m17nObject.html#ga2">m17n_object_unref()</a> function decrements by one. A managed object is automatically freed when its reference count becomes zero.<p>
A property whose key is a managing key can have only a managed object as its value. Such functions as <a class="el" href="group__m17nSymbol.html#ga9">msymbol_put()</a> and <a class="el" href="group__m17nPlist.html#ga7">mplist_put()</a> pay special attention to such a property.<p>
In addition to the predefined managed object types, users can define their own managed object types. See the documentation of the <a class="el" href="group__m17nObject.html#ga0">m17n_object()</a> for more details. <hr><h2>Function Documentation</h2>
