I'm all for that.  I learned the hard way at great expense to myself and several others.

As someone who is starting to get his hands *real* dirty with the internals
of the MapGuide Source, a primer on the proper usage of the Ptr<> smart
pointer template in the most common scenarios:

  1. Variable assignment
  2. Returning values
  3. Casting
  4. Usage when stored as a class member variable

As well as when to use the SAFE_ADDREF and SAFE_RELEASE macros, would be a
most welcome addition to this document and other budding non-Autodesk
MapGuide developers
