Detailed Description

template<class TYPE> template class SmartIFBase

Smart pointer base class to handle easily interfaces.

Description: A small class to easy the use of Gaudi interfaces. This class acts as a base class for the specific instances SmartIF<TYPE>. The base class only defines operations on the valid smart pointer.

Dependencies:

• Gaudi Interface definition: Gaudi/Interfaces/IInterface.h
