+/**
+ * @section MEM_SmartPtr 
+ * This class defines a smart pointer similar to that defined in 
+ * the Standard Template Library but without the painful get()
+ * semantics to access the internal c style pointer.
+ *
+ * It is often useful to explicitely decalre ownership of memory
+ * allocated on the heap within class or function scope. This
+ * class helps you to encapsulate this ownership within a value
+ * type. When an instance of this class goes out of scope it
+ * makes sure that any memory associated with it's internal pointer
+ * is deleted. It can help to inform users of an aggregate class
+ * that it owns instances of it's members and these instances 
+ * should not be shared. This is not reliably enforcable in C++
+ * but this class attempts to make the 1-1 relationship clear.
+ * 
+ * @section Example usage
+ *
+ * class foo {
+ *		...constructors accessors etc.
+ *		int x[1000];
+ * }
+ * 
+ * class bar {
+ *  public :
+ *		static
+ *			bar *
+ *		New(
+ *		) {
+ *			MEM_SmartPtr<foo> afoo = new foo();
+ *			MEM_SmartPtr<bar> that = new bar();
+ *
+ *			if (foo == NULL || that == NULL) return NULL;
+ *
+ *			that->m_foo = afoo.Release();
+ *			return that.Release();
+ *		}
+ *
+ *		~bar() {
+ *			// smart ptr takes care of deletion
+ *		}
+ *	private :
+ *		MEM_SmartPtr<foo> m_foo;
+ *	}
+ *			
+ * You may also safely construct vectors of MEM_SmartPtrs and 
+ * have the vector own stuff you put into it. 
+ *
+ * e.g.
+ * { 
+ * std::vector<MEM_SmartPtr<foo> > foo_vector;
+ * foo_vector.push_back( new foo());
+ * foo_vector.push_back( new foo());
+ *
+ * foo_vector[0]->bla();
+ * } // foo_vector out of scope => heap memory freed for both foos
+ *
+ * @warning this class should only be used for objects created
+ * on the heap via the new function. It will not behave correctly
+ * if you pass ptrs to objects created with new[] nor with 
+ * objects declared on the stack. Doing this is likely to crash
+ * the program or lead to memory leaks.
