Creates a new instance of std::shared_ptr whose managed object type is obtained from the r's managed object type using a cast expression. Both smart pointers will share the ownership of the managed object.
The resulting std::shared_ptr's managed object will be obtained by calling (in respective order):
1)
static_cast<T*>(r.get()).
2)
dynamic_cast<T*>(r.get()) (If the result of the dynamic_cast is 0, the returned shared_ptr will be empty).
3)
const_cast<T*>(r.get()).In any case, if the parameter r is an empty std::shared_ptr the result will be a new empty std::shared_ptr.
