Contradiction in C++ style guide about scoped_ptr #24

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
The C++ style guide gives two contradicting guidelines about using scoped_ptr. 
The Ownership and Smart Pointers section explicitly says not to use scoped_ptr 
except for backward compatibility, while the section on Variable-Length Arrays 
and alloca() lists scoped_ptr as an acceptable alternative.
