/**
 * @class   vtkWeakPointerBase
 * @brief   Non-templated superclass for vtkWeakPointer.
 *
 * vtkWeakPointerBase holds a pointer to a vtkObjectBase or subclass
 * instance, but it never affects the reference count of the vtkObjectBase. However,
 * when the vtkObjectBase referred to is destroyed, the pointer gets initialized to
 * nullptr, thus avoid dangling references.
