It is wrong. The Catholic system has it wrong. There is God the
Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit. May
has no divinity, and there is no line going from one of us to any
man, and then to God. It goes from each of us personally, directly
to God.

When Jesus died, the veil in the Temple was rent in two:

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Timothy+2%3A5-7&version=KJV
 
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men,
the man Christ Jesus;
6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
 
The veil existed to separate man from God. Only the High Priest
could go in behind the veil, and only once a year, and only with
blood and water and incense and much ceremony. He even had to wear
a special outfit with bells and pomegranates on it which made noise,
and be tied around the waist with a stout rope, and if that priest
went before God in that special room behind the veil unworthily,
God would strike him dead. The bells would stop making noise, and
the other priests used the rope to drag him out because if any of
the priests entered in to that special room (called the Holy of
Holies) they too would be struck down in an instant.
 
That was the Law, but Jesus nailed the Law to the cross by His body
and death given to man, given to God as a one-time offering for sin.
Jesus tore the veil in two by His death, so that now we no longer go
through that ceremony, no longer go through the priests or even the
high priest, but now we go directly to the Father, and not through
any other man, but only through Jesus Christ:

Il guaio é che stanno distruggendo
l'unica Chiesa vera quella cattolica romana, per sostituirla con quella falsa protestante, come false sono tutte le altre chiese e religioni.
 
 
Tutti gli altri dei delle vane religioni sono falsi o demoni.
 
Anche gli ebrei si devono convertire alla Chiesa Cattolica, e riconoscere la divinità di Gesù, se vorranno essere salvati.

I was, as I said, about 6 at the time. But I remember a hangman game,
and a tank battle game, and seeing my father doing some programming (he
had the machine home for his work, which required occasional bits of
programming). And I thought I wanted to program computers -
alternatively, I wanted to /design/ computers. (I design
microcontroller-based electronics boards as well as programming them, so
I guess I'm pretty close to that.)
 
I didn't start on assembly until I was about 11 or 12.

It means the Giovanni 20,20 is extra-Biblical, a teaching of man,
and not an inspired writing of God as by His Holy Spirit.
 
> #because He went to the Romanic Church Catholic

That is a teaching by man, and it is incorrect. The Catholic Church
teaches that God gave power to a man in this passage:
 
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+16%3A13-20&version=KJV
 
18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this
rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not
prevail against it.
 
Peter's name literally means "Rock." His former name, Simon, means
"shaky." So the Catholic Church doctrine teaches that when Jesus
gave him a new name, changing his name from shaky to rock, from
Simon to Peter, and then said, "Upon this rock I will build my
church," that somehow that translated special power to Peter.
 
But we continue reading the Bible, the teachings of Christ, and we
see Peter's ministry to the Jews in Acts, and Paul's ministry to the
Gentiles (non-Jews) in Acts, and then in the rest of the Bible as
well, it becomes clear that there was no explicit ministry given to
any one man, or any one sect of followers.
 
We are all to come to Jesus Christ directly, ask Him for forgiveness,
and then He becomes the head of our lives and guides us from within
to be a part of our local communities.
 
You'll remember from Revelation that Jesus instructed John to write
letters to the seven churches, each one from an immediate region:
 
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation+1%3A11&version=KJV
11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What
thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches
which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto
Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto
Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
 
-----
God has given us a pattern in our bodies. We have the head which has
the brain and instructs all the other parts of the body to move. It
is Christ who is the head of the church. Each of the parts of a body
are moving based on guidance from the brain. The pinky doesn't know
why it is moving when you wiggle it. It just knows to wiggle when it
is commanded to do so. It is the same with each of us.
 
As God's Holy Spirit moves in our lives, He naturally moves also in
our churches. It is a collective movement of the body of Christ, and
not of individual men within, though He does call specific men into
specific service, but they too are merely part of His body of Christ,
and are merely performing the roles for which they were called and
prepared.
 
-----
Roman Catholicism is incorrect in its teachings. It is Christ, and
Him alone, who saves us. It is us coming to God personally, by that
call He gives us from within (John 6:44), that saves us, and not any
confession to man, be he priest or believing friend, minister or
evangelist, neighbor or spouse. We come to Christ, and Him alone,
for salvation. And we come to the Father, and Him through Christ,
from that day forward, directly, in all of our seekings from God.
 
Remember how Jesus taught us to preach?
 
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+6%3A9-13&version=KJV
 
9 After this manner therefore pray ye:
 
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For
thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.
Amen.
 
In our daily prayers (give us this day...), we go directly to God the
Father (which art in Heaven), and not anyone on Earth. And Jesus even
goes so far as to teach us directly not to call anyone on Earth our
father, for we have one Father in Heaven:
 
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+23%3A9&version=KJV
 
9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your
Father, which is in heaven.
 
It is clear. But if you only read Catholic writings and doctrine, it
will say other things. But if you examine the full writings of God,
and not just what you find in the Catholic Bible, you will see that
the intent of God is clear: us to Him directly. No middle men any
longer. It's the whole purpose of why Christ went to the cross, to
reconcile us directly to Himself.

Read them. Compare them. Seek for yourself.
 
If you are interested in pursuing the truth, God Himself will reach
into your understanding and open it up. If you seek the truth, you
will know the truth because God will guide you from within.
 
It's not a matter of reason. It's not a matter of man's ability to
align things up in a row and say, "A-ha! There it is. I see it now.
1.. 2.. 3.. and x.. y.. z.. Yup. It makes sense." That is flesh,
and God is spirit, and knowledge of God is spirit. God must enable
you from within to be able to receive the truth, which is also spirit.
 
Seek the truth, and you will find it, when you seek for it with all
your heart.

OK, but classes with embedded lifetime management should be aware of
that and this is in no way unique to intrusive reference counts.
 
Typically their constructor is private an the public factory has
something like my_lifetime_management_container_with_smart_ptr.add(new
myclass()); which is perfectly valid.
 
In fact I have never seen a temporary smart pointer that is assigned
from this. I think this is always an anti-pattern. When I am already in
a instance method there is no need to deal with a smart pointer anymore.

You are right. They provide the appropriate deleter.
 
But I still would prefer intrusive ref counts unless I need weak references.

>But I still would prefer intrusive ref counts unless I need weak references.
 
I've worked in a code base with intrusive reference counts and in that
code base it meant that I couldn't forward declare such classes when I
wanted to hold them with an inline smart pointer as a member:
 
#inlucde <smart_ptr.h>
 
class A {
// ...
private:
smart_ptr<B> m_b;
};
 
Because smart_ptr's definition is inline, it exposes the inc/dec
operators on the enclosed class B that has an intrusive reference
count. Therefore I couldn't forward declare B, I had to include it's
complete declaration so that smart_ptr could see it's inc/dec
reference count methods.
 
It's not that I don't know how to solve this problem (include B's
header), it's that I'd rather just forward declare B instead.
 
Did you find a way to have such a smart pointer class for your
intrusive reference counted classes in such a way that you could do
type erasure and only forward declare B?

Hmm, I am pretty sure that this worked for me in a larger project.
[...]
Just checked:
class PlayableInstance;
...
class Location : public Iref_count
{ ...
vector_int<PlayableInstance> Callstack;
...
}
vector_int<> was my implementation of a vector of intrusive smart
pointers. Obviously it could deal with the incomplete type.
 
I have also to admit that it was not std::intrusive_ptr, mainly because
C++11 was not existent that time.

Hmm, wasn't there a rule that template functions are instantiated lazy?

In some way I must have managed this years ago.
Maybe the trick was that the destructor of Location wasn't inline. So
the destructor of the intrusive pointer was only instantiated in the
/implementation/ of Location, where all include files have been parsed
and the type PlayableInstance is complete. Unfortunately a quick sight
of the old source disproved the statement. The destructor was declared
in the class header though virtual.
No idea why this compiles. But I am sure that the type is really
incomplete during the definition of class Location because the header of
class PlayableInstance strongly depends on Location.

What is wrong with boost::intrusive_ptr that only needs such things:
 
namespace richard
{
class ForwardDeclared;
void intrusive_ptr_add_ref(ForwardDeclared* p);
void intrusive_ptr_release(ForwardDeclared* p);
}
 
boost::intrusive_ptr<richard::ForwardDeclared> that;
 
There it is made business of ForwardDeclared and those two functions
exactly where (and how thread safely) the references are counted and
what happens when the count drops to zero.

I'll see if I can come up with a minimal example. In this particular
code base VS 2008 didn't complain, but VS 2017 started complaining.
They changed some stuff with the way templates work in between those
two releases. VS 2008 parses the template declaration but takes the
definition as a stream of tokens that are replayed at instantiation.
This leads to some breakage with respect to so-called "two phase name
lookup" for templates. This blog post goes into more details:

And how is any of that a violation of laws? Unlike Obama's executive
orders? Or Clinton's illegal (and insecure) mail server? Or CLINTON'S
campaign's collusion with the Russians?
 
Nope. Not even close. Trump is at least attempting to follow the law -
the State Department hasn't given him information he needs for the
sanctions (never mind that Congress's "mandate" is not a law and is
arguably an infringement on the separation of powers). Governors also
have free speech rights, and are free to have their own opinions. None
of that suggests they are going against the Supreme Court - even if they
don't agree with it. And once again, the ObamaCare "mandate" is a
reversal of an Executive Order by Obama, not a law.
 
Sorry. None of your references show what you would like to believe.

The CIA under Bush, Obama, and Trump have been flying drone strikes in
and out of six sovereign countries at last count, violating US and
international law every day of the week for years, btw.
 
Or maybe not. AFAIK they all said their DOJ lawyers checked it all out

Exactly which laws are violated by drone strikes against enemy
combatants? As opposed to killing U.S. citizens without a trial - which
is against U.S. law.

Indeed, it relies on how the DOJ interprets the term "enemy combatant."
In practice it seems to be the way it is defined is "Any foreign
national the President determines to be." That's the way it seems
outside the loop at least; the DOJ claims otherwise and that they have
had their lawyers look it all over and it's fine.
 
Needing to make calls like that and keep rulings secret may be something
which must be done from time to time out of necessity; but trying to
make the case that when one defines the terms of the laws the way one
wants them to be without independent oversight, and then they adhere to
the "rule of law" which they defined themselves, and to claim that too
as being a noble and respectable enterprise, is a very hard sell.
 
Wake me up when a presidential candidate of any political party shows up
who even promises to constrain the power of the executive branch in
theory, rather than expand it in practice. Then I'll believe this "rule
of law" stuff.

There's always Stack Overflow where instead of local politics you just
get reputation farmers trying to close your question every 5 seconds and
making comments like "but WHY would you want to do that" and "*sigh*.

Are you trying to say that it is okay to discuss politics here in a C++
newsgroup because another discussion arena has different problems?
 
Please just drop the topic here - we have enough off-topic stuff already
(and at least the religious folk can argue that - assuming they are
right - their topic is important and that we can all do something about it).
 
In particular, /don't/ argue with Jerry Stuckle. It is pointless,
whether it is on topic or not. If you /really/ want to discuss this
more, invite Jerry to a new thread in sci.electronics.design where he
can compete in pissing contests with the other grumpy old right-wing
has-beens. (Yes, I know I sometimes take part in such threads in s.e.d.
- they are on-topic in that group.)
 
I know you are interested in C++, and have good ideas and good
