API Description
The smart pointer library provides five smart pointer class templates:
| Smart Pointer | Description |
|---|---|
| scoped_ptr | Simple sole ownership of single objects. Non-copyable. |
| scoped_array | Simple sole ownership of arrays. Non-copyable. |
| shared_ptr | Object ownership shared among multiple pointers |
| shared_array | Array ownership shared among multiple pointers. |
| weak_ptr | Non-owning observers of an object owned by shared_ptr. |
| intrusive_ptr | Shared ownership of objects with an embedded reference count. |
These templates are designed to complement the std::auto_ptr template.
