Always. auto_ptr is deprecated and is dangerous. unique_ptr, for example, perfectly works with containers.
2) When would I choose unique_ptr<> over scoped_ptr<> ?
Whenever you need the ability to move. You can choose to always use it instead of scoped_ptr, that's perfectly safe and doesn't add any overhead. _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
