Detailed Description

template<class T, class ALLOCATOR_POLICY>
class smart_ptr_base< T, ALLOCATOR_POLICY >

smart_ptr_base is the base class for smart_ptr. The main purpose for the smart_ptr_base is to make smart_ptr exception safe. When an exception is thrown, only objects that have been constructed gets their destructor's called. A base class gets constructed before the derived class members. If the base class gets constructed, and a the derived class member throws an exception, the base class destructor is guaranteed to be called. If no exception is thrown, than the base class destructor does nothing, because smart_ptr will nullify the pointer in it's destructor. This insures that a memory leak does not occur if smart_ptr's members throw an exception in their constructor.
