Anyone mentioned Automatic Reference Counting yet? Works pretty well for
ObjC from what I've seen.

Here on the forums? Quite a bit. The designer of ObjC's ARC even stopped in to clarify a few points about how it works in ObjC.

Glad it's on the radar. I hear lots of grousing about GC issues and things like this article saying shared_ptr is where it's at, but not as much about ARC as a solution. I'm no expert on it, but it seems if one is going to be discussing memory management at large, ARC should be part of the discussion. --bb
