### Additional Inherited Members

## Detailed Description

The **RefSCVector** class is a smart pointer to an **SCVector** specialization.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

### sc::RefSCVector::RefSCVector ()

Initializes the vector pointer to 0. The reference must be initialized before it is used.

### sc::RefSCVector::RefSCVector (const RefSCDimension & dim, const Ref\< SCMatrixKit \> &)

Create a vector with dimension dim. The data values are undefined.
