Destroy the currently managed object, if any. Then, set the target object of this managed pointer to be that referenced by the specified `ptr`, take ownership of `*ptr` as the currently managed object, and set a deleter that will invoke the specified `deleter` with the address of the currently managed object, and with the specified `cookie` (that the deleter can use for its own purposes), unless `0 == ptr`, in which case reset this managed pointer to empty. The behavior is undefined if `ptr` is already managed by another object, or if `0 == deleter && 0 != ptr`. Note that this function is _deprecated_ as it relies on undefined compiler behavior for its implementation, but luckily perform as required for all currently supported platforms; on platforms where the non‐deprecated overload is not available (e.g., GCC 3.4) code should be written as if it were available, as an appropriate (deprecated) overload will be selected with the correct (non‐deprecated) behavior.

== Synopsis

Declared in `<bslma_managedptr.h>`

----
template<
    class MANAGED_TYPE,
    class MANAGED_BASE,
    class COOKIE_TYPE,
    class COOKIE_BASE>
void
load(
    MANAGED_TYPE* ptr,
    COOKIE_TYPE* cookie,
    void(* deleter)(MANAGED_BASE*, COOKIE_BASE*));

== Description

DEPRECATED: Instead, use: ` template <class MANAGED_TYPE> void load(MANAGED_TYPE *ptr, void *cookie, DeleterFunc deleter); `
