## Detailed Description

This is a smart pointer that holds onto the associated ACE_Service_Object * until the current scope is left, at which point the object's <fini> hook is called and the service_object_ gets deleted.

This class is similar to the Standard C++ Library class <auto_ptr>. It is used in conjunction with statically linked <ace_service_objects>, as shown in the ./netsvcs/server/main.cpp example.
