If I change the code as following, what do you think?
auto task(point* pt_) -> void {
auto pt = beta::unique_ptr<point<float>>(pt_);
// skip the left detail implementation.
}
auto pt = new point<float>(1.2f, 2.3f, 3.4f, 4.5f);
auto worker1 = std::thread(task, pt);
auto worker2 = std::thread(task, pt);
auto worker3 = std::thread(task, pt);
// skip the left detail implementation.
Right! If you do that, you will get a double-free, and essentially nothing can protect you (because the m_ptr of each unique_ptr is independent). But also, you don't need to use threads to do it - and it's why best practise with smart pointers is to use std::make_unique:

Agree!! You're right !!!! I'm wrong, sorry.

Thank you for your rely.
