Detailed Description

GBProxy — legacy indirection wrapper around another GBComputation (deprecated).

Note

AI-generated documentation. Verify against the source before relying on it.

GBProxy is a GBComputation subclass that holds a non-owning GBComputation* G and forwards every virtual call to it; the stop_conditions_ok override copies this->stop_ onto G->stop_ before delegating, so caller-set stop conditions propagate at the one point that matters. The unique-to-this-class replace_GB(G0) swaps the held pointer (returning the old one and copying the new one's status onto this), which lets engine code start one algorithm, jettison its internal state, and keep only the resulting basis under a fresh wrapper — the design goal that motivated GBProxy in the first place. The destructor is // Intentionally left blank in the .cpp (no owned resources beyond the forwarded pointer), and the source's own in-line @brief flags this class as expungeable ("Should be expunged, as full functionality isn't used").

New code should prefer constructing the desired GBComputation subclass directly, or wrap a precomputed basis in GBDeclared (comp-gb-declared.hpp) when a trusted GB is already in hand.
