std::auto_ptr - no dependency on Boost - but the assignment semantics can be confusing at first - personally, I'd not use this.

I'd just like to point out that std::auto_ptr calls delete, not delete[], on the pointer it wons, so it cannot be used with new[]ed arrays.

Quite right - noticed just after I pressed the Send button - I'll use the defence that I never use std::auto_ptr :-) <snip>
