Bug description:
the initialise of autopointer calls reset. This calls the ReferenceCounter::reset()->refCount set to 0. Then the reference is set to _ref. which will never be deleted. Is this intensional so that the pointer is NOT deleted?

The name autopointer is misleading for a Reference Counted Autopointer. I suggest refactoring the name to RCAutoPointer at least
