boost Smart Pointer

Basic

public:
    typedef boost::shared_ptr<Fruit> Pointer; // notice
    typedef boost::shared_ptr<Fruit const> ConstPointer; // notice

    Fruit(int weight)
        : m_Weight(weight)

Shared from this

    : public boost::enable_shared_from_this<Fruit> // notice
{
public:
    typedef boost::shared_ptr<Fruit> Pointer;
    typedef boost::shared_ptr<Fruit const> ConstPointer;

    }

    void PrintSelf() const
    {

Customized Deletor
