void reset (X* p=0) throw();
Deallocate object pointed and set new value
Destructs the object pointed by the auto_ptr object, if any, and deallocates its memory (by calling operator delete). If a value for p is specified, the internal pointer is initialized to that value (otherwise it is set to the null pointer).
To only release the ownership of a pointer without destructing the object pointed by it, use member function release instead.
Parameters
- p
- Pointer to element. Its value is set as the new internal pointer's value for the auto_ptr object.
X is auto_ptr's template parameter (i.e., the type pointed).
