  21  * \file
  22  * \brief C++ API: "Smart pointers" for use with and in ICU4C C++ code.
  23  *
  24  * These classes are inspired by
  25  * - std::auto_ptr
  26  * - boost::scoped_ptr & boost::scoped_array
  27  * - Taligent Safe Pointers (TOnlyPointerTo)
  28  *
  29  * but none of those provide for all of the goals for ICU smart pointers:
  30  * - Smart pointer owns the object and releases it when it goes out of scope.
  31  * - No transfer of ownership via copy/assignment to reduce misuse. Simpler & more robust.
  32  * - ICU-compatible: No exceptions.
  33  * - Need to be able to orphan/release the pointer and its ownership.
  34  * - Need variants for normal C++ object pointers, C++ arrays, and ICU C service objects.
  35  *
  36  * For details see http://site.icu-project.org/design/cpp/scoped_ptr
