Detailed Description

template<class T>
class Phx::PtrInterface< T >

The PtrInterface class provides a standard implementation of the necessary interface for use with the Ptr smart-pointer class.

All objects that just want to be deleted when all references to them have been destroyed can use this as their base class.

Note:

This is not a thread-safe implementation. If the pointer to the object may be used across multiple threads, one should use the thread-safe locked version of this interface, LockedPtrInterface. On the other hand, if it is known that the pointer will never be used on multiple threads, there is a minor efficiency gain from using this standard version.
