60  * @brief A simple smart pointer providing strict ownership semantics.
61  *
62  * The Standard says:
63  * <pre>
64  * An @c auto_ptr owns the object it holds a pointer to. Copying
65  * an @c auto_ptr copies the pointer and transfers ownership to the
66  * destination. If more than one @c auto_ptr owns the same object
67  * at the same time the behavior of the program is undefined.
68  *
69  * The uses of @c auto_ptr include providing temporary
70  * exception-safety for dynamically allocated memory, passing
71  * ownership of dynamically allocated memory to a function, and
72  * returning dynamically allocated memory from a function. @c
73  * auto_ptr does not meet the CopyConstructible and Assignable
74  * requirements for Standard Library <a
75  * href="tables.html#65">container</a> elements and thus
76  * instantiating a Standard Library container with an @c auto_ptr
77  * results in undefined behavior.
78  * </pre>
79  * Quoted from [20.4.5]/3.
80  *
81  * Good examples of what can and cannot be done with auto_ptr can
82  * be found in the libstdc++ testsuite.
83  *
