Explore an alternative approach to smart pointers in C++ through this conference talk from C++Now 2019. Dive into Pure Storage's custom smart pointer implementation, focusing on 'owned' and 'delete_ptr' types. Learn about their unique semantics, conventions, and advantages over standard C++ smart pointers. Discover how these custom pointers handle ownership transitions and separate data views from ownership. Gain insights into creating tailored smart pointer hierarchies for specific company needs, and compare them with C++'s std::unique_ptr and std::shared_ptr. Access additional materials, including presentation slides, PDFs, and source code, to deepen your understanding of this alternative smart pointer design.
