/**
 * @ingroup advanced_usage
 * \class SharedPtr
 * an implementation of C++0x shared pointers (or boost's)
 *
 * this class implements a smart pointer, based on the shared+ptr
 * proposal. A description of shared_ptr can be found in Section 2.2.3
 * of the first C++ Technical Report (TR1)
 *   http://www.open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/papers/2005/n1745.pdf
 * or, alternatively, on the Boost C++ library website at
 *   http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_42_0/libs/smart_ptr/shared_ptr.htm
 *
 * Our implementation is compatible with both of these apart from a
 * series of members and functions that have not been implemented:
 *  - conversion from weak and auto pointers
 *  - support for deleters and allocators
 *  - static, constant and dynamic casts
 *  - constructor and assignment sharing ownership with a shared
 *    pointer r but storing a different pointer than r (needed for the
 *    previous item)
 * In the last 2 cases, their implementation would require storing two
 * pointers for every copies of the shared pointer, while our
 * implementation only needs one. We did not implement then since we
 * want to limit as much as possible memory and time consumption, and
 * can easily avoid (at least for our needs so far) the casts.
 *
 * We also add the possibility to force an update of the count.
 * 
 * The class has been tested against the existing boost (v1.42)
 * implementation (for the parts that we have implemented).
