Detailed Description

template<class RES>
class Util::ResourceManager< RES >

Resource manager class.

The ResourceManager is a singleton, and it uses Scott Meyers construct on first use idiom, i.e. the static function get_instance() will construct it when first called. There may be a problem with this idion if resources depend on each other. However, that is only when the program shuts down. See modern C++ design by Alexandrescu for more information.

I'll try to make everything in this class private and accessed by a simple interface of friend functions.
