haiku/src/servers/app/ReferenceCounting.h
Axel Dörfler 16ed1e1d15 * Removed headers/private/servers/app - everything is in src/servers/app now.
* Removed DisplaySupport.h, wasn't needed anymore.
* Removed private color set functions from InterfaceDefs.cpp - we might want
  something similar, but definitely not like that.
* Minor cleanup, added some missing licenses.

\class ReferenceCounting ReferenceCounting.h
\brief Base class for reference counting objects
ReferenceCounting objects track dependencies upon a particular object. In this way,
it is possible to ensure that a shared resource is not deleted if something else
needs it. How the dependency tracking is done largely depends on the child class.
