+/** the template classes in this header are helper to implement weak references
+    to implementation objects that are not refcounted.
+
+    THIS IS NOT THREADSAFE
+
+    Use this only to have 'safe' pointers to implementation objects that you
+    don't own but that you reference with a pointer.
+
+    Example:
+
+    class ImplClass : public tools::WeakBase< ImplClass >
+    {
+        ~ImplClass() { clearWeek(); } // not needed but safer, see method description
+        ...
+    };
+
+    class UserClass
+    {
+        tools::WeakReference< ImplClass > mxWeakRef;
+
+        UserClass( ImplClass* pOjbect ) : mxWeakRef( pObject ) {}
+
+        DoSomething()
+        {
+            if( mxWeakRef.is() )
+                mxWeakRef->DoSomethingMore();
+        }
