*
* DESCRIPTION
* RefPtr<> and RefPtrConst<> are const-friendly, polymorphic reference
* counting smart pointers.
*
* The pointed-to class must be derived from RefCount.
*
* RefPtr replaces X*
* RefPtrConst replaces const X*
*
* Dynamic_Cast replaces dynamic_cast and dynamic_cast
* Reinterpret_Cast replaces reinterpret_cast and reinterpret_cast
* Const_Cast replaces const_cast and const_cast
*
* IsValid() replaces (x != NULL)
*
* Member function Attach() or assigning RefPtr() will NULL a pointer.
*
* Generally, RefPtr<> and RefPtrConst<> behave like their raw pointer
* counterparts, except of course they are reference counted and will delete
* the pointed-to object when the last reference is lost. The major
* syntatical differences are the use of RefPtrConst<> to represent a pointer
* to a constant object (I found it impossible to represent this within rc_ptr)
* and the use of the upper-case cast functions (it is not possible to overload
* these built-in functions).
*
* An explicit goal of this class is to completely avoid the "new" and "delete"
* operators in client code. The constructors for these pointers are private;
* they are friends of the pointed-to class. This forces the use of Factory
* Method functions (or similar) in the pointed-to class. Pointed-to classes
* should make the constructor protected or private to disallow clients from
* creating an instance with "new". If this is done, it becomes very difficult
* for the client to accidentally leak objects and/or misuse the pointed-to
* class or the reference counting pointers.
