Just curious, I’ve been using boost:shared_ptr’s in the past a LOT – for having multiple objects store a shared pointer to a single object etc.
Is there an equivalent of this functionality in C#?

boost::shared_ptr allows for reference counted pointers in an environment which is not garbage collected. The .NET runtime allows for full garbage collection, so there is no need for a reference counting pointer container – simply store your object references.
