Using a smart pointer for all objects

Hi all,

I would like to use smart pointers for all objects created on the heap. Following is where my thoughts are:

1- Create a RootObject template class that all classes in the System must inherit from.

2- Overload 'new' operator in RootObject to always return a smart pointer.

Am I on the right track here? Is this even possible? If not, please advise?

Thanks.
