A Reference Counted Smart Pointer for Intrinsic or User-Defined Types for ParmParse
The template class PP_LnPtr<T> provides a reference counted wrapper around a pointer to type T (a T*). This "smart" pointer is intended for use with any type type T, including the intrinsic types. For this reason, we do not supply an operator->(), as such an operator on intrinsic types has only recently become a part of the C++ language and many compilers do not yet implement it.This is a convenience class for ParmParse and will not be in any way supported by anyone at ANAG.
