CAutoPtr::Detach

Call this method to release ownership of a pointer.

T* Detach( ) throw( );

Return Value

Returns a copy of the pointer.

Remarks

Releases ownership of a pointer, sets the CAutoPtr::m_p data member variable to NULL, and returns a copy of the pointer. After calling Detach, it is up to the programmer to free any allocated resources over which the CAutoPtr object may have previously assumed reponsibility.
