    \class GenericObjPtr
    \brief A smart pointer for the SALOME GenericObj interface.

    This class can be used in conjunction with the references to the CORBA objects which
    interfaces are inherited from the SALOME::GenericObj CORBA interface.

    The smart pointer class automatically invokes Register() / UnRegister() functions of th
    interface in order to prevent memory leaks and other such problems caused by improper
    usage of the CORBA references.

    Smart pointers can be easily copied, stored within class as data members, passed to the
    functions requiring native CORBA reference as parameters, etc.

    Usage:
    - If you want to assign the smart pointer to the CORBA _var type variable, use copy()
    function to make a copy of the stored CORBA object. Otherwise you might cause Segmentation
    Fault error.
    - To pass the smart pointer to the function that requires CORBA _ptr type parameter,
    use get() function.
    - If you want to take an ownership on the CORBA object, use take() function.
    In case of SALOME Generic object this is useful when some function returns newly created
    object that should be removed by the caller as soon as the object is no more required.
    For example, function GetSubShape() of the GEOM_IShapesOperation interface always creates
    new servant object and returns new object reference to it. If the object is not published
    in the study, it has to be destroyed and the corresponding servant should be deleted.
    
    Examples:
    \code
    typedef GEOM::GenericObjPtr<MyInterface> MyIPtr;
    void MyInterface_ptr foo();
    void MyInterface_ptr bar( MyInterface_ptr p );

    MyIPtr v1;                       // create empty (nil) pointer
    MyIPtr v2 = foo();               // get some CORBA reference and store it within the smart pointer
    v1 = v2;                         // copy smart pointer (reference counter is incremented)
    v2 = bar( v1.get() );            // pass smart pointer to the function
    MyInterface_var var = v2.copy(); // initialize _var variable with the smart pointer contents
    v1.take( foo() );                // take ownership on the newly created object
    \endcode
