I don't think it's a good idea for shared_ptr if it will always be a part of the interface. I guess some people don't want to support the style of initializing and assigning from 0 and they hope for help from the compiler to get rid of it. If OTOH we look at a policy based smart pointer, you idea can probably turned into a policy and no one would have a problem with it :) Regards, Daniel -- Daniel Frey aixigo AG - financial training, research and technology Schloß-Rahe-Straße 15, 52072 Aachen, Germany fon: +49 (0)241 936737-42, fax: +49 (0)241 936737-99 eMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED], web: http://www.aixigo.de _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
