             Summary: Introduce non-owning wrapper for raw ptrs
                 Key: MESOS-6603
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-6603
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: stout
            Reporter: Benjamin Bannier


A number of classes have non-owning raw ptrs, typically as some member 
{{[const] T*}}. Raw C ptrs are not initialized on declaration which makes it 
very convenient to introduce uninitialized variables.

We should consider introducing a very thin, non-owning wrapper around raw ptrs 
which ensures the wrapper raw ptr is properly initialized to {{nullptr}}. It 
should be possible to implement such a wrapper without adding new runtime 
overhead to correct usage of raw ptrs.
