Detailed Description

template<class RES>
class Util::ResourcePtr< RES >

Template for a pointer to a reference counted resource.

The ResourcePtr class template is a template for a reference counted resource pointer. It is a smart pointer that actually points to a ResourceRecord and not to the actual resource. Since the record contains a reference count, we can increase the reference count when the pointer is copied and decrease it in the destructor. Only the ResourceManager can create ResourcePtr's directly from a raw ResourceRecord.
