Don't know how often I defended this approach since then :) I think the main reason was that if you are using smart pointers, you still have to know about what is happening inside, and you can run into trouble if you don't. If you force people to call grab() and drop() themselves, they are forced to think a bit about it, and no one prevents them to use smart pointers anyway then. :) irrKlang is using the same interface for simple compatibility with Irrlicht of course. And yep, IReferenceCounter or ..ed would be an idea, originally I planned to populate IUnknown with MetaData-stuff similar to the debugdata in it currently.[/quote]
