Replaces the managed object with the one managed by r.

1) Shares ownership of the object managed by r. If r manages no object, *this manages no object too. Equivalent to shared_ptr<T>(r).swap(*this).

2) Move-assigns a shared_ptr from r. After the assignment, *this contains a copy of the previous state of r, r is empty. Equivalent to shared_ptr<T>(std::move(r)).swap(*this).

3) Transfers the ownership of the object managed by r to *this. If r manages no object, *this manages no object too. After the assignment, *this contains the pointer previously held by r, and use_count()==1; also r is empty. Equivalent to shared_ptr<T>(r).swap(*this).

4) Transfers the ownership of the object managed by r to *this. The deleter associated to r is stored for future deletion of the managed object. r manages no object after the call. Equivalent to shared_ptr<T>(std::move(r)).swap(*this).

[edit] Parameters

r - another smart pointer to share the ownership to or acquire the ownership from

[edit] Notes

The implementation may meet the requirements without creating a temporary shared_ptr object.
