  • If we are doing nonsense like composing algorithms in memory, checking for
    a NULL parent is not a viable way to detect when smartCopy has returned a
    loose transform. This is because root transforms created through
    algorithmCore or whatever also have NULL parents, but actually they will
    be deleted via QSharedPointers, so adding them to a parent chain is
    dangerous, and they can show up as child transforms if we say attach them
    as children of a stream or distribute transform as part of a
    parallelization scheme.
    
    So, instead we add an output parameter to smartCopy indicating if the
    returned pointer is a newly allocated transform, that is not already set
    up to be deleted.
