//!Describes the smart pointer weak_ptr.

namespace boost{
namespace interprocess{

//!The weak_ptr class template stores a "weak reference" to an object
//!that's already managed by a shared_ptr. To access the object, a weak_ptr 
//!can be converted to a shared_ptr using  the shared_ptr constructor or the
//!member function  lock. When the last shared_ptr to the object goes away
//!and the object is deleted, the attempt to obtain a shared_ptr from the
//!weak_ptr instances that refer to the deleted object will fail: the constructor
//!will throw an exception of type bad_weak_ptr, and weak_ptr::lock will
//!return an empty shared_ptr.
//!
//!Every weak_ptr meets the CopyConstructible and Assignable requirements
//!of the C++ Standard Library, and so can be used in standard library containers.
//!Comparison operators are supplied so that weak_ptr works with the standard
//!library's associative containers.
//!
//!weak_ptr operations never throw exceptions.
//!
//!The class template is parameterized on T, the type of the object pointed to.
