boost smart pointers

[Technocrat]

Well this is my first time using boost and I have a question

Using this example:

class TEST
{
   //...blah
};

boost::shared_ptr<TEST> CTestnew TEST);

A) Is this the right way to use it?
B) Do I have to do a delete like old pointers or does the smart pointer do it for you?

NM found my own answer here:

Except that you forgot an opening parenthesis, it's ok.

And you don't need to delete it, that's the point in using smart pointers.

Damn typo

Interesting stuff in that lib

I love the boost library, there is just soo much stuff in it!

Is there any books or maybe an online resource that goes voer EVERYTHING contained in the library?

Damn, I had a beautiful piece of code using std::mem_fun, std::bind1st, std::copy, std:stream_iterator and boost::make_transform_iterator to output the results of calling a member function on every class instance stored in a vector...

But I deleted it.
