+/*
+ * Resource Acquisition Is Initialization is a programming idiom used
+ * to write robust code that is able to deallocate resources properly,
+ * even in presence of execution errors or exceptions that need to be
+ * propagated. The Scoped* classes defined in this header perform the
+ * deallocation of the resource they hold once program execution
+ * reaches the end of the scope for which they have been defined.
+ *
+ * This header provides the following RAII classes:
+ *
+ * - |ScopedFreePtr| - a container for a pointer, that automatically calls
+ * |free()| at the end of the scope;
+ * - |ScopedDeletePtr| - a container for a pointer, that automatically calls
+ * |delete| at the end of the scope;
+ * - |ScopedDeleteArray| - a container for a pointer to an array, that
+ * automatically calls |delete[]| at the end of the scope.
+ *
+ * The general scenario for each of the RAII classes is the following:
+ *
+ * ScopedClass foo(create_value());
+ * // ... In this scope, |foo| is defined. Use |foo.get()| or |foo.rwget()|
+ * to access the value.
+ * // ... In case of |return| or |throw|, |foo| is deallocated automatically.
+ * // ... If |foo| needs to be returned or stored, use |foo.forget()|
+ *
+ * Note that the RAII classes defined in this header do _not_ perform any form
+ * of reference-counting or garbage-collection. These classes have exactly two
+ * behaviors:
+ *
+ * - if |forget()| has not been called, the resource is always deallocated at
+ * the end of the scope;
+ * - if |forget()| has been called, any control on the resource is unbound
+ * and the resource is not deallocated by the class.
+ *
+ * Extension:
+ *
+ * In addition, this header provides class |Scoped| and macro |SCOPED_TEMPLATE|
+ * to simplify the definition of RAII classes for other scenarios. These macros
+ * have been used to automatically close file descriptors/file handles when
+ * reaching the end of the scope, graphics contexts, etc.
