C classes, T classes, R classes

You will notice that class names in Symbian begins with different letters. The letter with which they begin depends on the type of the class.

If the name begins with T then it is a so called T class. Such classes cannot own external data - i.e. they cannot have pointers to data that is not owned by a different object. Such classes usually don't need a destructor. They can be created on the stack (i.e. as automatic variables) or inlined in a class.

If a class owns some external data, then it must be a subclass (direct or indirect) of CBase and it's name will begin with C - this will be a C class. The CBase provides a virtual destructor, so even after casting to CBase * the right destructor will be called. Another nice feature of C classes is that it fills the data area with 0s, so you don't need to initialize variables to 0 or NULL (what is the most common case). Because the C classes will be pushed on the cleanup stack (which will be described later), C classes cannot be created on the stack - they must be created with the new operator (usually new(ELeave) as will be explained later).
