Hello Boost developers, I am interested in finding one or more individuals who are knowledgeable about memory management in C++ (and especially of the reference-counting approach taken by boost::shared_ptr and boost::weak_ptr) to review an idea for a comprehensive approach to safer memory management in C++ that encapsulates all raw C++ pointers in high-level code. The technical report for the approach is: Teuchos C++ Memory Management Classes, Idioms, and Related Topics The Complete Reference A Comprehensive Strategy for Safe and Efficient Memory Management in C++ for High Performance Computing and can be found at: http://www.cs.sandia.gov/~rabartl/TeuchosMemoryManagementSAND.pdf If someone would be willing to at least go through the abbreviated table of contents laid out in the Preface and provide some feedback, I would be greatly appreciative. If there is a better mail list to send this too, please let me know. Thanks, - Ross P.S. Please make sure and respond to me personally (rabartl@sandia.gov<mailto:rabartl@sandia.gov>) or a spam filter will likely kill it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Roscoe A.
