+ /** Copy-on-write wrapper.
+
+ This template provides copy-on-write semantics for the wrapped
+ type: when copying, the operation is performed shallow,
+ i.e. different cow_wrapper objects share the same underlying
+ instance. Only when accessing the underlying object via
+ non-const methods, a unique copy is provided.
+
+ The type parameter <code>T</code> must satisfy the following
+ requirements: it must be default-constructible, copyable (it
+ need not be assignable), and be of non-reference type. Note
+ that, despite the fact that this template provides access to
+ the wrapped type via pointer-like methods
+ (<code>operator->()</code> and <code>operator*()</code>), it does
+ <em>not</em> work like e.g. the std smart pointer wrappers
+ (shared_ptr, unique_ptr, etc.). Internally, the cow_wrapper
+ holds a by-value instance of the wrapped object. This is to
+ avoid one additional heap allocation, and providing access via
+ <code>operator->()</code>/<code>operator*()</code> is because
+ <code>operator.()</code> cannot be overridden.
+
+ Regarding thread safety: this wrapper is <em>not</em>
+ thread-safe per se, because cow_wrapper has no way of
+ synchronizing the potentially many different cow_wrapper
+ instances, that reference a single shared value_type
+ instance. That said, when passing
+ <code>ThreadSafeRefCountingPolicy</code> as the
+ <code>MTPolicy</code> parameter, accessing a thread-safe
+ pointee through multiple cow_wrapper instances might be
+ thread-safe, if the individual pointee methods are
+ thread-safe, <em>including</em> pointee's copy
+ constructor. Any wrapped object that needs external
+ synchronisation (e.g. via an external mutex, which arbitrates
+ access to object methods, and can be held across multiple
+ object method calls) cannot easily be dealt with in a
+ thread-safe way, because, as noted, objects are shared behind
+ the client's back.
+
+ @attention if one wants to use the pimpl idiom together with
+ cow_wrapper (i.e. put an opaque type into the cow_wrapper),
+ then <em>all<em> methods in the surrounding class needs to be
+ non-inline (<em>including</em> destructor, copy constructor
+ and assignment operator).
+
+ @example
+ <pre>
+class cow_wrapper_client_impl;
+
+class cow_wrapper_client
+{
+public:
+ cow_wrapper_client();
+ cow_wrapper_client( const cow_wrapper_client& );
+ cow_wrapper_client( cow_wrapper_client&& );
+ ~cow_wrapper_client();
+
+ cow_wrapper_client& operator=( const cow_wrapper_client& );
+ cow_wrapper_client& operator=( cow_wrapper_client&& );
+
+ void modify( int nVal );
+ int queryUnmodified() const;
+
+private:
+ o3tl::cow_wrapper< cow_wrapper_client_impl > maImpl;
+};
+ </pre>
+ and the implementation file would look like this:
+ <pre>
+class cow_wrapper_client_impl
+{
+public:
+ void setValue( int nVal ) { mnValue = nVal; }
+ int getValue() const { return mnValue; }
+
+private:
+ int mnValue;
+}

+ maImpl()
