/// This class is a pointer proxy doing reference counting on the object

/// The SGSharedPtr class handles reference counting and possible
|
|
/// destruction if no nore references are in use automatically.
|
|
/// Classes derived from @SGReferenced can be handled with SGSharedPtr.
|
|
/// Once you have a SGSharedPtr available you can use it just like
|
|
/// a usual pointer with the exception that you don't need to delete it.
|
|
/// Such a reference is initialized by zero if not initialized with a
|
|
/// class pointer.
|
|
/// One thing you need to avoid are cyclic loops with such pointers.
|
|
/// As long as such a cyclic loop exists the reference count never drops
|
|
/// to zero and consequently the objects will never be destroyed.

|
/// Always try to use directed graphs where the references away from the
|
|
/// top node are made with SGSharedPtr's and the back references are done with
|
|
/// ordinary pointers.
