Detailed Description

Smart memory management with pseudo pointers.

This module embeds all the component used to make smart pointers. A smart pointer is a class that overload the operators * and -> to behave like a pointer. Generally it offers a solution to ease the memory management in C++.

Warning:

smart pointers are not the ultimate solution to manage memory indeed genrally each smart pointer have a weakness and you have to know exactly what this pseudo pointer do to check if it is usefull or not for your program.
