auto_ptr 注意事项
1.auto_ptr不能共享管理的指针的所有权，并且指针是从堆上分配的
2.不能用于管理指针数组，因为它在析构的时候调用的是delete而不是delete[]；并且c++类库中还没有具有auto_ptr语意学的指针数组。
3.auto_ptr是解决特殊问题的智能指针的一种，它和引入了引用记数的是智能指针是不一样的，一般来讲，根据auto_ptr的特性，应用unconstant是一种不安全的做法。
4.它不能应用容器中，因为这会涉及到copy以及assignment，这是不安全的，在语言以及库中已经做了预防，会在编译时报错。
总体来说如果把auto_ptr作为函数自变量或者返回值来用的话，就好像把函数内栈上分配的空间地址返回，很不安全。
