I just added examples to the overview and clearly states the advantage of using block_ptr over shared_ptr: https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/block_ptr/libs/smart_ptr/doc/overvie...
Hi Phil,
This is a good news. I think you could also explain that shared_ptr are sometimes an excellent solution to avoid dangling pointers in multithread environment. And compare that to your current BlockPtr library.
Could you make it clearer whether or not multithread is supported (and add some examples in the doc of how this work if that is the case) ? I think you told that at the moment monothread is OK, but multithread would need more digging, is that right?
Good idea, I'll add some multithreaded examples.
I think you could improve your reference too. Maybe you you could go for a more boost-like reference doc, instead of doxygen. Who knows how much impact this could have during a review ;-) ?
I'll boostify the docs ;) Thanks, -Phil
