SharedResourcePointer - getRefCount()

General JUCE discussion
1

Hi, for unit-testing and debugging it would be very helpful if the the current RefCount is available to the public.

int getRefCount() const noexcept
{
    return getSharedObjectHolder().refCount;
};

Why? In my current use case i want to make sure, that in my audio-callback a SharedResource is already initialized.

void audioCallback()
{
   OtherClass otherClass;
   otherClass.otherProcedureWhichIsUsingASharedResource()

void OtherClass::otherProcedureWhichIsUsingASharedResource()
{
      // Please make sure that this SharedResource is already 
      // initialized before entering the audioCallback
      SharedResourcePointer<MySharedResource> sharedResource
      jassert(sharedResource.getRefCount()>1);

Sure, good request, I’ll add that.
