Hi Daniel,
I can take care of these issues. Give me a week or so.
Thanks

I can look at the std::auto_ptr and std::any changes. For the post part, those
are search/replace. I don’t know anything about the ref counted stuff. Is
there anyone around that could look at that? Is that also just a
search/replace?
C++ is not my strong point, I’m mostly a Java person. C++ is just used to
control Christmas lights and we generally don’t push the language too hard for
that. :)
