Smart reference counting pointer class for automatic garbage collection.
For a carefully written discussion about what this class is and basic details on how to use it see the beginners guide.
Quickstart for RCP
Here we present a short, but fairly comprehensive, quick-start for the use of RCP<>. The use cases described here should cover the overwhelming majority of the use instances of RCP<> in a typical program.
The following class hierarchy will be used in the C++ examples given below.
All of the following code examples used in this quickstart are assumed to be in the namespace Teuchos or have appropriate using Teuchos::... declarations. This removes the need to explicitly use Teuchos:: to qualify classes, functions and other declarations from the Teuchos namespace. Note that some of the runtime checks are denoted as "debug runtime checked" which means that checking will only be performed in a debug build (that is one where the macro TEUCHOS_DEBUG is defined at compile time).

Initialize from another RCP<T> object.
After construction, this and r_ptr will reference the same object.
This form of the copy constructor is required even though the below more general templated version is sufficient since some compilers will generate this function automatically which will give an incorrect implementation.

Initialize from another RCP<T2> object (implicit conversion only).
This function allows the implicit conversion of smart pointer objects just like with raw C++ pointers. Note that this function will only compile if the statement T1 *ptr = r_ptr.get() will compile.
Postconditons:

Removes a reference to a dynamically allocated object and possibly deletes the object if owned.
Deletes the object if this->has_ownership() == true and this->strong_count() == 1. If this->strong_count() == 1 but this->has_ownership() == false then the object is not deleted. If this->strong_count() > 1 then the internal reference count shared by all the other related RCP<...> objects for this shared object is deincremented by one. If this->get() == NULL then nothing happens.

inlineexplicit |
Construct a non-owning RCP from a raw pointer to a type that is defined.
This version avoids adding a deallocator but still requires the type to be defined since it looks up the base object's address when doing RCPNode tracing.
NOTE: It is recommended that this constructor never be called directly but only through a type-specific non-member constructor function or at least through the general non-member rcpFromRef() function.
Definition at line 156 of file Teuchos_RCP.hpp.

Construct a non-owning RCP from a raw pointer to a type that is not defined.
This version avoids any type of compile-time queries of the type that would fail due to the type being undefined.

Copy the pointer to the referenced object and increment the reference count.
If this->has_ownership() == true and this->strong_count() == 1 before this operation is called, then the object pointed to by this->get() will be deleted (usually using delete) prior to binding to the pointer (possibly NULL) pointed to in r_ptr. Assignment to self (i.e. this->get() == r_ptr.get()) is harmless and this function does nothing.
Postconditons:
this->get() == r_ptr.get() this->strong_count() == r_ptr.strong_count() this->has_ownership() == r_ptr.has_ownership() r_ptr.get() != NULL then r_ptr.strong_count() is incremented by 1 Provides the "strong guarantee" in a debug build!

The underlying object will not be valid if the strong count has gone to zero but the weak count thas not.

Release the ownership of the underlying dynamically allocated object.
WARNING! Never call delete rcp.release().get() as this can cause all kinds of segfaults. Instead, release your use of the shared object by simply assigning the RCP object to Teuchos::null.
This function should only be used as last result when all hell has broken loose and memory management control has broken down. This function is not to be used lightly!
After this function is called then the client is responsible for deallocating the shared object no matter how many ref_count_prt<T> objects have a reference to it. If this->get()== NULL, then this call is meaningless.
Note that this function does not have the exact same semantics as does auto_ptr<T>::release(). In auto_ptr<T>::release(), this is set to NULL while here in RCP<T>:: release() only an ownership flag is set and *this still points to the same object. It would be difficult to duplicate the behavior of auto_ptr<T>::release() for this class.

Returns true if the smart pointers share the same underlying reference-counted object.
This method does more than just check if this->get() == r_ptr.get(). It also checks to see if the underlying reference counting machinary is the same.

If the object pointer is non-null, assert that it is still valid.
If is_null()==false && strong_count()==0, this will throw DanglingReferenceErorr with a great error message.
If is_null()==true, then this will not throw any exception.
In this context, null is a valid object.

Create a RCP object properly typed.
| p | [in] Pointer to an object to be reference counted. |
| owns_mem | [in] If owns_mem==true then delete p will be called when the last reference to this object is removed. If owns_mem==false then nothing will happen to delete the the object pointed to by p when the last reference is removed. |
Preconditions:
owns_mem==true then p must have been created by calling new to create the object since delete p will be called eventually. If the pointer p did not come from new then either the client should use the version of rcp() that that uses a deallocator policy object or should pass in owns_mem = false.

Initialize from a raw pointer with a deallocation policy.
| p | [in] Raw C++ pointer that this will represent. |
| dealloc | [in] Deallocator policy object (copied by value) that defines a function void Dealloc_T::free(T* p) that will free the underlying object. |
| owns_mem | [in] If true then return is allowed to delete the underlying pointer by calling dealloc.free(p). when all references have been removed. |
Preconditions:
void Dealloc_T::free(T* p) exists. Postconditions:
return.get() == p p == NULL then return.count() == 0 return.has_ownership() == false return.count() == 1 return.has_ownership() == owns_mem By default, return has ownership to delete the object pointed to by p when return is deleted (see ~RCP()). If owns_mem==true, it is vital that the address p passed in is the same address that was returned by new. With multiple inheritance this is not always the case. See the above discussion. This class is templated to accept a deallocator object that will free the pointer. The other functions use a default deallocator of type DeallocDelete which has a method DeallocDelete::free() which just calls delete p.

Create a new RCP that inverts the ownership of parent and child.
This implements the "inverted object ownership" idiom.
NOTE: The parent can be retrieved using the function getInvertedObjOwnershipParent(...).
Allocate a new RCP object with a new RCPNode with memory pointing to the initial node.
The purpose of this function is to create a new "handle" to the underlying memory with its own seprate reference count. The new RCP object will have a new RCPNodeTmpl object that has a copy of the input RCP object embedded in it. This maintains the correct reference counting behaviors but now gives a private count. One would want to use rcpCloneNode(...) whenever it is important to keep a private reference count which is needed for some types of use cases.

Implicit cast of underlying RCP type from T1* to T2*.
The function will compile only if (T2* p2 = p1.get();) compiles.
This is to be used for conversions up an inheritance hierarchy and from non-const to const and any other standard implicit pointer conversions allowed by C++.
Static cast of underlying RCP type from T1* to T2*.
The function will compile only if (static_cast<T2*>(p1.get());) compiles.
This can safely be used for conversion down an inheritance hierarchy with polymorphic types only if dynamic_cast<T2>(p1.get()) == static_cast<T2>(p1.get()). If not then you have to use rcp_dynamic_cast<T2>(p1).
Constant cast of underlying RCP type from T1* to T2*.

Set extra data associated with a RCP object.
| extra_data | [in] Data object that will be set (copied) |
| name | [in] The name given to the extra data. The value of name together with the data type T1 of the extra data must be unique from any other such data or the other data will be overwritten. |
| p | [out] On output, will be updated with the input extra_data |
| destroy_when | [in] Determines when extra_data will be destroyed in relation to the underlying reference-counted object. If destroy_when==PRE_DESTROY then extra_data will be deleted before the underlying reference-counted object. If destroy_when==POST_DESTROY (the default) then extra_data will be deleted after the underlying reference-counted object. |
| force_unique | [in] Determines if this type and name pair must be unique in which case if an object with this same type and name already exists, then an std::exception will be thrown. The default is true for safety. |
If there is a call to this function with the same type of extra data T1 and same arguments p and name has already been made, then the current piece of extra data already set will be overwritten with extra_data. However, if the type of the extra data T1 is different, then the extra data can be added and not overwrite existing extra data. This means that extra data is keyed on both the type and name. This helps to minimize the chance that clients will unexpectedly overwrite data by accident.
When the last RefcountPtr object is removed and the reference-count node is deleted, then objects are deleted in the following order: (1) All of the extra data that where added with destroy_when==PRE_DESTROY are first, (2) then the underlying reference-counted object is deleted, and (3) the rest of the extra data that was added with destroy_when==PRE_DESTROY is then deleted. The order in which the objects are destroyed is not guaranteed. Therefore, clients should be careful not to add extra data that has deletion dependancies (instead consider using nested RCP objects as extra data which will guarantee the order of deletion).
Preconditions:
p->get() != NULL (throws NullReferenceError) T1 for extra_data and the same std::string name and force_unique==true, then an std::invalid_argument std::exception will be thrown. Note, this function is made a non-member function to be consistent with the non-member get_extra_data() functions.
