///Container for ControlPacket pointers

/**

        This class is a safe way to exchange <code>ControlPacket</code>

        over a <code>sc_signal</code>.  It is a modified automatic pointer

        that never releases it's pointer, but instead creates

        a copy of an object unless it is explicitely asked

        to take control.

        Since it never gives control of it's internal pointer,

        the object inside the container always stays valid!

        A NOP packet is constructed by default.

        Caution has to be taken when using this.  When passing

        a pointer to the constructor, the container will take

        control of the packet.  If an object is passed, then

        a copy of the object will be made.
