58  * @brief A simple smart pointer providing strict ownership semantics.
59  *
60  * The Standard says:
61  * <pre>
62  * An @c auto_ptr owns the object it holds a pointer to. Copying
63  * an @c auto_ptr copies the pointer and transfers ownership to the
64  * destination. If more than one @c auto_ptr owns the same object
65  * at the same time the behavior of the program is undefined.
66  *
67  * The uses of @c auto_ptr include providing temporary
68  * exception-safety for dynamically allocated memory, passing
69  * ownership of dynamically allocated memory to a function, and
70  * returning dynamically allocated memory from a function. @c
71  * auto_ptr does not meet the CopyConstructible and Assignable
72  * requirements for Standard Library <a
73  * href="tables.html#65">container</a> elements and thus
74  * instantiating a Standard Library container with an @c auto_ptr
75  * results in undefined behavior.
76  * </pre>
77  * Quoted from [20.4.5]/3.
78  *
79  * Good examples of what can and cannot be done with auto_ptr can
80  * be found in the libstdc++ testsuite.
