+
+ <p>Pack Pointer was designed to be easy to use and to be versatile in terms of object variants it can refer to. Its only requirement is limited to the usage
+ of a special type needed to instanciate objects referred to. For example:</p>
+
+ <pre>
+ pack_ptr<int> p = new pack<int>(11);
+ </pre>
+
+ <p>Will instanciate a special object <i>pack<int></i> having an integer as one of its member. The pointer to the object is then passed to the
+ <i>pack_ptr<int></i> that will manage its existence and later destroy and deallocate it when it is found to be no longer referenced.<p>
+
+ <p>Variants of the object type can also be used. In order to instanciate an array of integer for example, all that will be needed is to change the
+ type to the following:<p>
+
+ <pre>
+ pack_ptr<int[10]> p = new pack<int[10]>();
+ </pre>
+
+ See the following example for different cases of its usage.
+
+ <h2><a name="advanced" id="advanced"></a>Advanced</h2>
+
+ <p>When STL containers are made out of objects having members of type <i>pack_ptr<T></i> then it will be desirable to have all of the allocated nodes
+ and its members part of the same <i>pack</i>. This way all of the newly allocated <i>pack_ptr<T></i> will be referring to the same <i>pack</i> header.
+ In order to do so, we must tell the container in question a new allocator that will be used to instanciate the nodes. This allocator is called:
+ <i>pack_allocator<T></i>. For example:</p>
+
+ <pre>
+ list< pack_ptr<int>, pack_allocator< pack_ptr<int> > > c;
+ c.push_back(new pack<int>(11));
+ </pre>
