Detailed Description

Handle deallocation of a poiniter to an object of any type.

Example:

class Foo
{
  private:
    int n_{0};
  public:
    Foo(int i) : n_(i)
    {
        std::cout << "in Foo() constructor\n";
    }
 
    ~Foo()
    {
        std::cout << "in Foo() destructor\n";
    }
 
    void print()
    {
        std::cout << "the number is: " << n_ << "\n";
    }
};
 
int main(int argn, char** argv)
{
    void* ptr = new any_ptr(new Foo(42));
    auto& foo = static_cast<any_ptr*>(ptr)->get<Foo>();
    foo.print();
    delete static_cast<any_ptr*>(ptr);
 
    return 0;
}

And the output is:

in Foo() constructor
the number is: 42
in Foo() destructor
