Detailed Description

template<class T>
class SimTK::Concretize< T >

Wrap a pointer to an abstract base class in a way that makes it behave like a concrete class (sometimes called a "ClonePtr").

The abstract base class must cooperate by containing a clone() method which returns a pointer to a copy of the concrete object.

The Concretize object normally makes a copy of the object passed to its constructor. However, if you pass it a non-const pointer Concretize will steal it and (if possible) return your pointer null just to be tidy.
