341 Don't use this for simple types such as "int" or "long"!
342 You _may_ use it for "double" but it's awfully inefficient.

345 Note on Add/Insert functions:
346 <BR>
347 1) function(T*) gives the object to the list, i.e. it will delete the
348 object when it's removed or in the list's dtor
349 <BR>
350 2) function(T&) will create a copy of the object and work with it
351 <BR>
352 <BR>
353 Also:
354 <BR>
355 1) Remove() will delete the object after removing it from the list
356 <BR>
357 2) Detach() just removes the object from the list (returning pointer to it)
358 <BR>
359 <BR>
360 NB1: Base type T should have an accessible copy ctor if Add(T&) is used,
361 <BR>
362 NB2: Never ever cast a list to it's base type: as dtor is <B>not</B> virtual
363 it will provoke memory leaks
