Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class fe::sp< T >

Intrusive Smart Pointer.

In the spectrum of "smart" pointers, this is a shared pointer. It is held from several points and let go when all contacts have released it. The elimination of the pointed-to object is left to the object itself. It is presumed that the object holds a reference count which tracks each acquire and release. A common resolution is self-deletion.

For an interchangable weak reference, see hp<>.

FE doesn't currently have direct support for a scoped or auto pointer with just one owner.

The reason this class breaks fe naming convention is for clarity during usage. The short lowercase 'sp' name obscures the pointed-to class less.

Attempt to reference a pointer on the stack is illegal and should cause an exception.
