Improve alignment of its behaviour with std::unique_ptr - element_type typedef - release() method - identical to ptr() method - get() method to get the pointer without checking and without releasing it. - operator*() for dereferencing Method name changes - renamed rawPtr() to get() - renamed rawRef() to ref(), removed unused const version. Removed methods/operators - assignment from a raw pointer was deleted (was rarely used). Can be convenient, but uncontrolled and potentially unsafe. Do allow assignment from a literal nullptr though, since this can never leak (and also corresponds to the unique_ptr API). Additional methods - clone() method: forwards to the clone() method of the underlying data object with argument forwarding. - reset(autoPtr&&) as an alternative to operator=(autoPtr&&) STYLE: avoid implicit conversion from autoPtr to object type in many places - existing implementation has the following: operator const T&() const { return operator*(); } which means that the following code works: autoPtr<mapPolyMesh> map = ...; updateMesh(*map); // OK: explicit dereferencing updateMesh(map()); // OK: explicit dereferencing updateMesh(map); // OK: implicit dereferencing for clarity it may preferable to avoid the implicit dereferencing - prefer operator* to operator() when deferenced a return value so it is clearer that a pointer is involve and not a function call etc Eg, return *meshPtr_; vs. return meshPtr_();
