Is there a C++/CLI smart pointer project (e.g. scoped_ptr)?

Question

Is there a C++/CLI RAII smart pointer class for containment of a native pointer in a managed type? Just wondering, before I go write my own clr_scoped_ptr value class template.

I'm aware of the Microsoft-provided:

The above two are similar to auto_ptr or unique_ptr.

I gave skeleton code for a counted_handle here, similar to shared_ptr

But all these are for disposing managed ref class instances, not for freeing native objects.

Interesting. If you write your own clr_scoped_ptr, please post it as an answer. — ali_bahoo

@rotsiser: I see several serous errors in that one looking at it for just a minute. Nevermind that the intended behavior isn't even close to what this question asks for. — Ben Voigt
@BenVoigt: I found this question while looking for something to manage a native smart pointer (shared_ptr in my case) in a C++/CLI class. I'm sorry if the linked question wasn't helpful to you, but it helped me and I thought it may help others with similar needs who may come across this question. Are you aware of a more suitable solution for use with shared_ptr? — Rotsiser Mho

This one looks fairly complete, but I'm not looking for silent transfer of ownership ala auto_ptr.

I've posted my version under a rather permissive license over at codereview.se
