Re: [boost] [smart_ptr] shared_ptr<T> T destructor required evenifadeleter function is provided

Hello Peter,

what about the following in which we don't transfer ownership. (Note that now X::create() return X*)

int main () { shared_ptr<X> ptr(X::create(), X::deleter()); ptr.reset(X::create());

This is the equivalent of doing shared_ptr<X> ptr( X::create() ); which you're explicitly trying to prevent. The equivalent of

shared_ptr<X> ptr(X::create(), X::deleter());

is ptr.reset( X::create(), X::deleter() );

return 0; }
