namespace SimTK {
/** This is a smart pointer that implements "cross reference" semantics where
a pointer data member of some object is intended to refer to some target
object in a larger data structure. Judicious use of this container will allow
you to use compiler-generated copy constructors and copy assignment operators
for classes which would otherwise have to implement their own in order to
properly initialize these pointer data members, which must not be copied.
The contained pointer is initialized to null (0) on construction, and it is
reinitialized to null upon copy construction or copy assignment. That's
because we are assuming this is part of copying the entire data structure and
copying the old pointer would create a reference into the old data structure
rather than the new copy. This pointer does not own the target to which it
points, and there is no reference counting so it will become stale if the
target is deleted.
Whether you can write through the pointer is controlled by whether type T
is a const type. For example %ReferencePtr\<int> is equivalent to an int*, while
%ReferencePtr\<const int> is equivalent to a const int*.
This class is entirely inline and has no computational or space overhead; it
contains just a single pointer.
