// Revision History
// 21 May 01 Initial complete version (Beman Dawes)
// The original code for this example appeared in the shared_ptr documentation.
// Ray Gallimore pointed out that foo_set was missing a Compare template
// argument, so would not work as intended. At that point the code was
// turned into an actual .cpp file so it could be compiled and tested.
